Isn't the featureClass + featureCode giving you this information already ? <Feature rdf:about="http://sws.geonames.org/2950159/"> <name>Berlin</name> [...] <featureClass rdf:resource="http://www.geonames.org/ontology#P"/> <featureCode rdf:resource="http://www.geonames.org/ontology#P.PPLC"/> [...] </Feature> "P.PPLC" is a little bit more obscure than "city", but all values for code and class are defined in the ontology and described in human-readable form at [1].
