Hi there, When you first start stanbol you get a small dbpedia index, that's why you don't get the 2nd or 3rd tier cities/towns. When you use dbpedia spotlight, you connect to an external service that probably uses a bigger index than the 43k entities, that's why you get more data but not everything. You can follow the documentation to create a bigger index, start with these links:
https://stanbol.apache.org/docs/trunk/customvocabulary.html#building-full-local-indexes-with-the-entityhub-indexing-tool http://svn.apache.org/repos/as f/stanbol/trunk/entityhub/indexing/genericrdf/src/main/resources/indexing/config/indexing.properties Also: https://stanbol.apache.org/docs/0.9.0-incubating/customvocabulary.html#examples But a lot of people seem to be struggling with this, can I suggest that someone that doesn't struggle with this and is successful to build bigger indexes goes through the documentation and updates it to both index dbpedia current (should be applicable to future versions or at least 3.9, maybe use this script <https://github.com/apache/stanbol/pull/3>) and remove older parts of the documentation that no longer apply to the current version of Stanbol? A lot of the users are struggling with this, myself included, I was able to build a bigger index, but it doesn't work every time and I can't understand why.
