User:Eugene van der Pijll/Lists of Dutch towns


 * List of towns in Groningen
 * List of towns in Friesland
 * List of towns in Drente
 * List of towns in Overijssel
 * List of towns in Gelderland
 * List of towns in Utrecht
 * List of towns in North Holland
 * List of towns in South Holland
 * List of towns in Zeeland
 * List of towns in North Brabant
 * List of towns in Dutch Limburg
 * List of towns in Flevoland

I have created these lists using a number of sources:
 * The main source is the list of Dutch geographic names from the NGA's GEOnet Names Server (GNS). I have extracted from this the names and coordinates for all Dutch towns.
 * I have added the municipality information from a list by Henk van de Kamer (http://staff.science.uva.nl/~erikt/.Henk/welcome.html), for the towns where the coordinates matched.
 * I have made several manual changes.

I'm planning on improving the data with more information from various sources.
