Geopolitical data and utilities for building web3 applications with geographic and spatial capabilities.
This toolkit provides country, state, and city data along with scripts to generate hierarchical geographic directory structures. Useful for dapps, maps, NFTs, and other projects needing geolocation and geopolitical data.
directory_maker- Shell scripts to generate hierarchical geographic directory structures. Creates a folder structure for each country and state for the entire planet.database_maker- PHP scripts to generate a MySQL database of country and top level administrative division data. Works with this json repo to create a database of country and state data.
Here are some other useful geospatial data and utilities on GitHub:
-
Awesome Web4 - A curated list of Web4 projects and resources
-
Natural Earth - Public domain vector map data
-
GeoJSON Regions - TopoJSON-encoded maps
-
REST Countries - API and data for countries
-
OpenAddresses - Civic street address data
-
OpenStreetMap - Collaborative mapping data
Our stated purpose as a not-for-profit is to create free software to help the planet. We release as much of our work as possible under the MIT license to that end. These scripts and structures will help you to build your own systems that resonate with the planet.
Contributions of new scripts, utilities, and datasets are welcome! Please open an issue or PR.
The code and data in this project is available under the MIT license.
