The script only uses the Python standard library.\n\n```sh\npython tools/geonames_to_sqlite.py\n```\n\nBy default, the script reads `cities1000.txt` and writes `assets/geonames/cities1000.sqlite`. To use different paths:\n\n```sh\npython tools/geonames_to_sqlite.py --input path/to/cities1000.txt --output assets/geonames/cities1000.sqlite\n```\n\nEach run deletes and recreates the output database. The generated database contains a `locations` table with `geoname_id`, `name`, `country_code`, `latitude`, `longitude`, `population`, and `elevation`, plus an index on case-insensitive `name` and `country_code`.\n\nDuring import, the script validates that each GeoNames row has 19 tab-separated fields and parses the ID, coordinates, population, and any non-empty elevation as numeric values. When it finishes, it prints the number of rows written and the final SQLite file size.\n\n### Implementation\n\n- [https://github.com/TechnikTobi/little_exif](TechnikTobi/little_exif) — A library for reading and writing EXIF data in pure Rust.\n- [GeoNames](https://www.geonames.org/) — The GeoNames geographical database `cities1000.zip`. Used to match location names to EXIF GPS data.\n\n---\n\n\u003csmall\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"https://www.flaticon.com/free-icons/ui\" title=\"ui icons\"\u003eUi icons created by smashingstocks - Flaticon\u003c/a\u003e\n\u003c/small\u003e\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fhmerritt%2Fexifmeta","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fhmerritt%2Fexifmeta","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fhmerritt%2Fexifmeta/lists"}
