问题

有些值是明显重复的(“Abay”因为区域匹配而且“Ab Barik”因为这两个位置非常接近),其他值不是那么明显(甚至可能不是实际的重复):

"1919430","27.4263889","57.5725","IR","29","`Abbasabad"
"1919435","36.5641667","61.14","IR","30","`Abbasabad"

目标是消除所有重复项。

问题

给出一个值表,例如上面的CSV数据:

  • 你如何消除重复?
  • 您将使用哪些以地理为中心的PostgreSQL功能?
  • 你会用什么其他标准来推断重复项?

更新

半工作示例代码,用于在同一国家/地区内选择重复的城市名称(距离不到10公里):

select
  c1.country, c1.name, c1.region_id, c2.region_id, c1.latitude_decimal, c1.longitude_decimal, c2.latitude_decimal, c2.longitude_decimal
from
  climate.maxmind_city c1,
  climate.maxmind_city c2
where
  c1.country = 'BE' and
  c1.id <> c2.id and
  c1.country = c2.country and
  c1.name = c2.name and
  (c1.latitude_decimal <> c2.latitude_decimal or c1.longitude_decimal <> c2.longitude_decimal) and
  earth_distance(
    ll_to_earth( c1.latitude_decimal, c1.longitude_decimal ),
    ll_to_earth( c2.latitude_decimal, c2.longitude_decimal ) ) <= 10
order by
  country, name

两阶段方法:

  1. 删除min(id),消除明显的重复项(相同的国家/地区,地区和城市名称)。
  2. 消除彼此非常接近的人,具有相同的名称和国家。这可能会删除一些合法的城市,但几乎没有任何后果。
  3. 谢谢!

答案 0 :(得分:1)

查找重复项很简单:

select
  max(id) as this_should_stay,
  latitude,
  longitude,
  country,
  region,
  city
FROM
  your_table
group by
  latitude,
  longitude,
  country,
  region,
  city
having count(*) > 1;

添加代码以基于此删除重复项很简单:

delete from your_table where id not in (
    select
      max(id) as this_should_stay
    FROM
      your_table
    group by
      latitude,
      longitude,
      country,
      region,
      city
)

注意删除查询中没有。

这将删除位于同一国家/地区同名城市附近的第二个城市:

delete from climate.maxmind_city mc where id in (
select
  max(c1.id)
from
  climate.maxmind_city c1,
  climate.maxmind_city c2
where
  c1.id <> c2.id and
  c1.country = c2.country and
  c1.name = c2.name and
  earth_distance(
    ll_to_earth( c1.latitude_decimal, c1.longitude_decimal ),
    ll_to_earth( c2.latitude_decimal, c2.longitude_decimal ) ) <= 35
group by
  c1.country, c1.name
order by
  c1.country, c1.name
)

如果您的数据已通过CSV文件和代码(PHP)导入,那么您可以使用PHP代码中的put条件防止重复输入。如果你插入的城市已经存在,那么make循环继续下一条记录并跳过当前记录。

如果您按照这种方式导入数据库中的数据,请尝试此操作。
