[GraphHopper] How to read (Names + Latitude/Longitude) from graph data?

[Muhammad Babar]

Hi Peter,

Happy 2015, i was looking for offline data that's why i thought may be the
graph data have that information of address and their coordinates.

Please do suggest more if you know anything better. After my research i
came to know i can download database of address and their coordinates from
osm or geonames. Then i can convert it to sqlite and use in my app.

Regards
Muhammad Babar
