    Location is a feature of anything material.

    Location can be expressed using GML or we could work towards an unified wiki-style markup with Wikipedia, in which case we could fetch most of the needed information from wikipedia.

    If you prefer the latter you should get involved in http://meta.wikipedia.org


    Location information in Wikipedia:


    Freely available resources

    • UN/LOCODE approximatelly 40.000 ports, airports, rail and road terminals, postal exchange offices, border crossings etc. used in international trade
