GeoNames

GeoNames (or GeoNames.org) is a user-editable geographical database available and accessible through various web services, under a Creative Commons attribution license. The project was founded in late 2005.

Not to be confused with GEOnet Names Server.

The GeoNames dataset differs from, but includes data from, the US Government's similarly named GEOnet Names Server.
