User:The Anome/Gminas for geocoding

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a set of Polish gmina articles that (a) lack geocoordinates, and (b) do not have a disambiguating comma in their name, together with short forms that may just possibly be the place that gives them their name.

Unfortunately, high levels of name ambiguity and low levels of tagging even when names are unambiguous combine to make this less useful as a geocoding shortcut that I would have hoped.

Memo to self:

This may be a relevant source, but has no coordinate data: http://www.stat.gov.pl/broker/access/prefile/listPreFiles.jspa
Voivodeship (region) "WOJ" ... Powiat (county) "POW" ... Gmina (parish- or commune-like entity) "GMI"

See File:POLSKA woj pow gminy.png for a complete, but alas unlabeled and uncalibrated, map of gmina areas.

File:POLSKA mapa powiaty2.png maps just the powiat-level regions.
