Example Usage

NB: this element is deprecated in version 1.04

Example for the Herat region of Afghanistan - which has an ID of 1140026 on geonames.org.

To find Herat on geonames.org you would create a link like this: http://www.geonames.org/1140026/

The IATI gazeteer-ref for geonames is GEO, so the element would look like:

<location>
  ....
  <gazetteer-entry gazeteer-ref="GEO">1140026</gazetteer-entry>
  ....
</location>
