Xeratul · 02-14-2016, 06:29 AM

Hello,

I would like sthg faster than google map.

Is there a csv database to code something like:
http://geobytes.com/citydistancetool/

Example.

I get the lat/long for Paris and Roma from a csv database, and I can code a C programm on ncurses to calc the distance between those 2 cities.

Best regards

Hi,

On the same site, look at http://geobytes.com/geoworldmap/. This didn't quite work for me, but I found the data at http://www.geobytes.com/downloads/GeoWorldMap.zip. This contains a cities.txt file with exactly what you asked for ;-)

Regards,

Clifford
