Evaluation data patches for geocoding

Data format

There is one patch file for each evaluation dataset used in our experiments. The format of each file contents is tab-separated values:

1. toponym
2. latitude, longitude in dataset
3. unified latitude, longitude using WikiData

There may be more than one examples for each toponym in the respective datasets hence the unique rows in the patch files would be less than total evaluation examples.

#2 (i.e. latitude in dataset , longitude in dataset) is provided only for reference to connect back to the original datasets. For evaluation itself we use #1 and #3 only.

License

The patches are released under GNU General Public License v3.0, same as the one used in open-sourced evaluation datasets on which these are based on.

Reference

The dataset is associated with the paper on Spatial Language Representation with Multi-Level Geocoding
