Ask HN: Is there a site that allows easy overlays of cities?
I saw the linked picture and wondered if there was a site that automatically allowed overlay of cities over other places? Preferably with statistics like population etc. http://i.imgur.com/Eqfme.jpg
- sjs382 12y agoI've looked everywhere for GeoJSON data for county boundaries. It's really hard to find good data for these boundaries, especially for Orleans Parish in Louisiana. This is the only place I've found good data for Orleans (though, it's not free): http://www.maptechnica.com/us-county-boundary-map/county/Orleans%20Parish/state/LA/countyid/22071 http://www.maptechnica.com/us-county-boundary-map/county/Orl...

There is already a bug ticket open to support format=geojson. Note the licence: the data is free including commercial use, but you have to attribute where you got it from. There are a couple of other ways and tools to get that data. Source: I do this for a living at http://opencagedata.com/ http://opencagedata.com/
