Abstract

Multiple standards and encodings for names of countries, as well as multiple renderings of the country names themselves cause problems for interoperability. This impacts both human and automated processing. This paper describes an automated method for aligning pairs of country code sets by examining the string similarity between the names of the countries in each set.
