Title: Automatically Creating Keywrods from Location Data - what Language?
Post by: sinus on August 09, 2018, 04:35:37 PM
Hi Mario
The "new" automatic keywording from Location (see attachement) is cool. VERY cool!
Though I have one question.

If I take your variables for the country (File.MD. country), the generated keyword is mostly an english word, like "Germany", instead of "Deutschland".
I have seen in your helpfile (attachement) you have "DEU" for the code and "Germany" for the country.

Hence I guess, this list is generated by IMatch? Because usually the code is "GER".
In my case it is also CHE, but instead "Schweiz" there is written in the list "Switzerland", and hence the keywords is something like "Country|Switzerland|Zürich".

I can remember, in an earlier version (long ago) we could edit this list, and I did it and now I end finally with two different keywords for the same city:

Country|Switzerland|Zürich
Country|Schweiz|Zürich

Is there a place, where we can edit this country-list?
If not, I have to change older files from "Schweiz" to "Switzerland".  ;D

This list is the official ISO country code list.
And this is DE (two-letter code) and DEU (three-letter code). You cannot edit this list.

The names and other data used for reverse geocoding is controlled via Edit > Preferences > Geo & Maps. Not all providers support all languages.

Thanks, Mario

In this case I think, I have to switch to "Switzerland" and change the old files.
I like this keywording, thanks for that.

See https://www.nationsonline.org/oneworld/country_code_list.htm.
Note that this drop down is only used for manual input. For rev geocode IMatch uses what the service delivers (e.g. DEU Deutschland or DEU Germany).
