I found that as it was referenced from the calea site. And NIMA points
to another US government site that contains data for the US and
Antartica (which the NIMA site doesn't). These places seem to be a better
place to get the data than calea since you can get the data in a smaller
number of downloads and you don't have to extract the data from html.
There is also location data for other kinds of objects besides populated
places.
