Missing 16 country codes from data/iso-3166-2.json about 3166 HOT 7 OPEN

AW does not exist by a mistake - it exists in the original data, but lost in the export http://geolocated.org/AW/

Some locations, as SX, were moved under their "top level" origins - http://geolocated.org/NL/3elo3okh
Probably that was a mistake.

I will try to tidy it up, but it's almost a manual work.

That's not hard to check, but not so easy to find a fix. It was sure it does contain everything.

It seems "CW" Curaçao is still missing. Is there any plan to update it?

I'd be happy to provide you the spatial objects if that helps?

No result in ISOCountryListUN for (EH) Western Sahara

It's interesting that EH exists in dispute configuration as 195838 OSM region, deleted 7 years ago. Now EH is represented by https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/2000314677.

Both records are not present in iso3166 database. That is definitely a mistake.

The code XK is being used by the European Commission[28] the IMF, and SWIFT,[29] the CLDR, and other organizations as a temporary country code for Kosovo.[30]

This is why disputes are here - not all codes are expected to present, or present on the top level. For example NF is marked as "not independent", however it's region (https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/2574988) is also absent in the database 😓

Ideally, an information record like the ones you can find at https://github.com/esosedi/3166/blob/master/data/iso3166-2.json - that is the main data file, everything else is derived from it.
Unfortuantely it does not support any "auto-update".

@theKashey we have some users asking for the presence of Kosovo (XK). We can hack something to add the code on our end in the meantime, but are there any plans to add Kosovo to this repo? Kosovo appears to now be recognized by most western countries.

I see that XK is already referenced in the Russian exclusion file — I'm not sure if we'd need to add it to other country-specific exclusion configs.

from 3166.

The first step to resolve the current situation is to update the sources as there is no XK present in the 3166 file, as well as osm and Geonames lookup.

The only way is to add a new record into datasource - https://github.com/esosedi/3166/blob/4967dc5a9cf50c1015592be0ba3050288d60a1a5/data/iso3166-2.json

May be it's a good moment to split one huge source into multiple small configs it will be easier to handle.
