Bad/unreliable data #2
Description
PSA to anyone looking to use this data -
Looking through the JSON it appears that the data is very, very inaccurate. Here is an example of what I mean:
{"id":6990,"country":"Canada","state":"Alberta","city":"Manitoba"},
{"id":6991,"country":"Canada","state":"Alberta","city":"Newfoundland and Labrador"},
{"id":6992,"country":"Canada","state":"Alberta","city":"Northwest Territories"},
{"id":6993,"country":"Canada","state":"Alberta","city":"Nunavut"},
{"id":6994,"country":"Canada","state":"Alberta","city":"Saskatchewan"},
{"id":6995,"country":"Canada","state":"Alberta","city":"Wood Buffalo"},
{"id":6996,"country":"Canada","state":"Alberta","city":"Yukon"},
That is 100% of the data for my province. Only 1 of those is an actual city, the rest are the names of OTHER PROVINCES. The data for British Columbia is missing Vancouver and Victoria, Toronto isn't listed under Ontario, etc
The data for Canada is very, very wrong and missing a tonne of entries. This is probably the case for the entire dataset. Last update was 2 years ago so I doubt this will change so this serves as more of a PSA to anyone looking at this repo.
