Rake tasks to identify the latitude and longitude of American
cities.

Takes the Geonames database here:
http://download.geonames.org/export/dump/US.zip

There are a series of rake files which help to process the data.
Once it's placed in the database via rake geonames:import then
you can use the scripts.
