I like their new GEO sorted set with latitude and longitude. Can someone point me to a [reasonably priced] geocoding database to display nearest Town, Region (only where appropriate), Country (in English) based on latitude and longitude?

Thanks, I really receive good sentiments from the community. I've the feeling that this is not due just to the fact that many developers find Redis useful. It has very serious limits like many other softwares. It is that so far Redis was never proposed as "The Shit", the silver bullet that will save you from your data problem. Is just something I and the other contribs try to do with love, without pretending we are g…
Unfortunately you can often oversell to the people who pay developers.
Just realised that http://download.redis.io/ is not available under https (neither is http://redis.io ). It may be worth downloading it from github.

My problem with many existing geo implementations is they assume that a circular radius is the query type I care about, and longitude and latitude is sufficient to know where I actually am in terms of jurisdiction, etc. Being able to add fine grained polygons to represent national, state, county or town bounda…

Wouldn’t it be possible to get this data from Openstreetmap?

The attemps at a distributed version were harshely criticized... What I like about Redis is that, like a mechanical watch, the insides are as elegant and nice as the user experience.

I've used GeoNames (geonames.org) for a few projects.
