GeoDB has been designed to follow REST best-practices and be easy to pick up. Once you understand how one endpoint works, you'll understand them all. In addition, although it wraps GeoNames.org city data, it does a bit of cleaning to remove data that is not self-consistent or otherwise incomplete to the point of being unusable.
Besides English, results can be displayed in the following additional languages: French, German, Italian, Russian, and Spanish.
The API offers a significant Free tier of up to 3,600 requests/hour.
