문제

I spent my afternoon looking for open databases with the most important cities all over the world,

most of them are premium and costs something like $400, but since I'm working on a open source project I would like to use open data, is there somewhere where I can download the name of important cities?

I found open street map but it is 16gb of things such as nodes relations, but I only need name of cities and coordinates,

thank you very much,

This might be more than you're after, but you could use the Overpass API to query all nodes with a key value pair of ["place"="city"].

E.g. go to http://www.overpass-api.de/query_form.html and enter the following:

node
  ["place"="city"];
out body;

for XML output, or the following for JSON:

[out:json];
node
  ["place"="city"];
out body;

The output took a minute or so to return to me (it returned 5,000+ nodes), but looks like the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
