Hi, I want to offer a CSV download of data in my Rails app (eg. An "Export to Excel" link to grab the current view of tabulated data). However, I can''t seem to break-out of the Rails framework to output this non-HTML data.

Estimados Sobre como obtener la geolocalización, aparte de lo aportado por Rubén Casal, también existe el api de Microsoft, lo que yo descartaría es tomar una base de datos con geolocalización, teóricamente andarían pero si uno por casualidad conoce la geografía real, se da cuenta de errores, salvo que en España los datos estén correctos.
