Hi everybody,

Would be adding the "Plus Codes" introduced by Google last year be an
Option?
-  https://plus.codes/terms
-  https://plus.codes/howitworks

Basically there are three encoding:
1) Global: 8FR9WFX5+6R
2) Local+City: WFX5+6R Bern
3) Local: WFX5+6R - Not unique, but for nearby places "good enough"

1) + 3) wouldn`t required any DB access, 2) uses top-level coordinates of
places (countries, cities) to select a location

Regards, Oli

PS: Maybe there are some Zooglers (Zurich Googlers) following the mailing
list and could help to test / implement?
