Hi! I noticed these two places but I'm not sure what the difference is between the two: geonameId: 6691815 (12.92824, 77.59399) and geonameId: 6695473 (12.92725, 77.59534) one is named TilakNagar and the other is named Tilak Nagar. Are these really two different places? Thanks! Luca

GeoNames to Directional Region

Hello, I was wondering if there was a way to find the directional region where a county is located? For example, I would like to place "Miami-Dade County" in "Southeastern Florida" or "Bay County" in "Florida Panhandle".
