So it confirms that the data is coming from the Infobox template and handled
directly at the template level...
I agree with the necessity of interpreting templates recursively in Infoboxes.
We actually had to add a similar feature in our Wikipedia structured data
extraction pipeline. It has gre
Looking at the template source we find the following:
{{Geobox
coor|{{*#expr:abs*({{{latitude|{{{latd|}})}}|{{{latm|}}}|{{{lats|}}}|
*S*
which means that they don't care about the sign, they just take the
absolute value and add 'S' at the end and later they embed the coordinates
template.
Hi Nicolas,
I don't think the geo information you see in the top-right corner of the
parsed wiki page actually comes from the article. I think it actually
comes from another wikimedia project or geonames. I see 2 possible ways
for us to fix it
1) Correct the information in wikipedia by restructur
Hi Alexandru,
Unfortunately I am not sure it's that simple.- The coordinates in the infobox
have indeed wrong in term of "absolute" values (i.e. wrong latitude but correct
longitude).- However, the coord. displayed at the top-right of the page are
correct (37_48_49_S_144_57_47_E) and Melbourne i
Hi Nicolas,
>From Wikipedia wiki source, the part where you press edit on top of the page
| latd =37 |latm =48 |lats =49
| longd =144 |longm =57 |longs =47
The correct entry in Wikipedia should be
| latd =-37 |latm =48 |lats =49
| longd =144 |longm =57 |longs =47
This is an error in Wiki
Hi,It looks like an old problem with the geoparsers in DBpedia is still not
resolved.
Back in 2012, the geo-coordinates extractors were not leveraging the hemisphere
information correctly [3], causing some places from the southern hemisphere
(e.g. Melbourne) to appear in the northern hemisphere
