Por mero acaso, encontrei os dois recursos abaixo descritos - que para além da aplicabilidade e utilidade genérica têm a particularidade de ser desenvolvidos por equipas de universidades portuguesas. [Para variar do tema deprimente dos últimos mails desta lista, sugiro explorar os protótipos e ficar mais animado por ver trabalho interessante a ser desenvolvido em .pt] nery *The EuropeanaConnect Gazetteer* - A rich data resource including over 9m geographic names, co-ordinates, and boundaries.
The EuropeanaConnect Gazetteer is a Geographical Information Service. This rich data resource will give service providers access to over 9 million geographic names, co-ordinates, and boundaries. [...] The information in the EuropeanaConnect Gazetteer has been collected from free data sources, which means there are no legal constraints to its use and re-use. Information from additional data sources is also continuously integrated, ensuring the service is kept up to date. See the prototype: The Europeana Gazetteer Prototype<http://europeana-geo.isti.cnr.it/gazetteer> For more information, or to give feedback, please contact: André Soares; and Gilberto Pedrosa.<[email protected];%[email protected];%20vanessa%20proudman?subject=ThoughtLab:%20The%20EuropeanaConnect%20Gazeteer%20feedback> * The EuropeanaConnect Geoparser* - A tool to extract place names from text. (EuropeanaConnect) It will enable users to enter unstructured or partially structured text such as metadata records and then receive a list of geographic features that are referred to in their text. The results can be returned as XML or HTML.
