Component body

Yahoo! GeoPlanet (formerly The Yahoo! Internet Location Platform) provides a resource for managing all geo-permanent named places on Earth. The Internet Location Platform is designed to facilitate spatial interoperability and geographic discovery; users can traverse the spatial hierarchy, identify the geography relevant to their users and their business, and in turn, unambiguously geotag, geotarget, and geolocate data across the Web.
