Hello,
I moved with my Wikipedia coordinate extraction project Wikipedia-World:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProjekt_Georeferenzierung/Wikipe…
from Mysql to PostGIS on ptolemy.
The most advantage is that it is much faster and really support all 273 languages.
I have 3 tables for different zoomlevels and use a geometry index (gist).
I use coordinates-database from dispenser and merge the entries with the interwikilinks to
one table.
I support the parameter "title" and can so extract more than one coordinate per
article.
Everybody on ptolemy should have access to the database u_kolossos.
I hope ptolemy will be stable over the next few days because I want to publish the tool to
the german community.
I would be happy if somebody else make a announcement to the other wikipedia communities.
Greetings Kolossos
