Hi Yuri,Thanks for the response :) I checked out the GeoData extension and specifically looked at the API list=geosearch. The data given by geosearch seems to be just the title of the page where the lat/lon is given. I want to find the CIty and country given a latitude, longitude. I can't seem to be able to find any API method to get the country and city of a given latitude, longitude in Extension:GeoData.Am I understanding this wrong ? Have I misread/understood something ?RegardsAbdeali JKOn Tue, Jul 12, 2016 at 3:39 PM, Yuri Astrakhan <yastrakhan@wikimedia.org> wrote:Hi Abdeali. We have a geodata search that you might find useful - https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:GeoData - it should allow you to find at least some of the information via mediawiki api. Ideally, i hope we will be able to integrate geospatial search into wikidata query service, as that should provide more interesting results.On Tue, Jul 12, 2016 at 6:25 AM, Abdeali Kothari <abdealikothari@gmail.com> wrote:_______________________________________________Hi,I am a GSoC student making a script using pywikibot to find categories for Images on commons[0]. One thing I was trying was to use the GPS coordinateds given by the camera (in EXIF data) to find the location and add the place's category to it. For example, if I take an image of the Eiffel Tower it should auto add Category:Paris to it.For this, I was trying to use the Nominatim service from OSM. http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org is not meant for bulk finding the geolocations and limits the query rate at 1 query / minute.I was wondering whether the OSM api was also available on maps.wikimedia.org ? And whether the Nominatim API is hosted and working ? I wasn't able to find any documentation about it.Also, is there any documentation on query limits and so on ?Regards,Abdeali JKReferences:
