Why are the properties https://dbpedia.org/property/city and https://dbpedia.org/property/country deleted in the Geo object? I would keep this information as Strings for the sake of simplicity (although it can be retrieved via owl:sameAs https://sws.geonames.org/3149318/).

it's a good point. i'll retain city and country info.

I would not remove

geo_region = institution_geo['region'] if not geo_region is None: institutions_graph.add((geo_uri,region_predicate,Literal(geo_region,datatype=XSD.string)))

but leave it as String in the code like city and country info using the defined region predicate: region_predicate = URIRef("https://dbpedia.org/property/region")
