How we transform the data

We transform the source data as follows: cities are filtered and ranked by population, postal prefixes are aggregated per administrative division, and name pools are sampled and compacted to reduce transfer size. The randomisation applied during generation is produced by this site's own algorithm and is not part of the source data.

All sources are provided "as is", without warranty of accuracy.
