The GeoCategory Importer phpLD Vault Service allows you to import geographical categories (countries, regions / states / provinces, and cities) into your phpLD database. Includes cities worldwide. You can select all world cities, or cities in a specific region or country. You can also limit to cities with a minimum population. Especially ideal for upstart directories. The service will compile a list of cats/subcats, and assemble them in a series of mySQL statements in a file that that you can import into phpLD database (e.g., via phpMyAdmin).

This mod is offered by the phpLD Vault, a third party vendor, and they require a $15 membership fee.

This mod is may not be easy to acquire now as the phpLD Vault Site is offline.
