How to get all parks of the world with address and lat/lng
I am trying to import a list of all parks in the world and data about them. I need the following information:
- Park name
- Address
- 开发者_如何学JAVAOwner (state, country or county or city)
- Latitude/Longtitude (but presumably I can get that from the address)
Is there any place to import such a thing?
You might be able to get it from openstreetmap.org - crowdsourced map data. Perhaps things tagged leisure=park:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:leisure%3Dpark
or boundary=national_park:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary%3Dnational_park
Not sure about getting the 'owner' or 'address' - many of these things will be national properties, with no address as such. "National Parks" here in the UK, for example, are different to National Parks in the USA. Here it's just a designation of certain special applicable laws in the region relating to conservation and tourism, and land ownership is unaffected, whereas in the USA, I believe, the land is all owned by the nation.
