+## Places (geohash ladder addressable locations)
+
+`draft` `optional`
+
+Clients need a simple, relay-indexable way to discover physical places (e.g., RV parks, cafés, venues) and to query them efficiently on maps. It should work with relays that don't have "Search Capability" (NIP-50). This NIP defines a parameterized replaceable event for “Places” that are **geohash-addressable** via a ladder of `g` tags—from coarse to fine precision—so clients can query by exact `#g` matches without prefix search.
+
+## 2. Event Kind
+
+- **Kind:** `33000`
+- **Type:** Addressable (NIP-01)
+- **Parameterized key:** the first `["d", <identifier>]` tag (e.g., a random ID)
+
+## 3. Required/Recommended Fields
+
+### 3.1. Required fields/tags
+
+- `["d", "<stable-id>"]` — a random ID (e.g., `permit:FL:44-54-00003`, `slug:lochloosa-harbor`, etc.)
+- At least one `["g", "<geohash>"]` tag.  
+  The **recommended pattern** is to include a **ladder** of geohash prefixes from coarse to fine precision (e.g., `d`, `dj`, `dj3`, `dj3p`, …). **Recommended precision is at least 7**. This enables fast map queries with `#g` matching at various zoom levels.
+
+### 3.2. Recommended tags
+
+- `["name", "<display name>"]`
+- `["website", "<website url>"]` — official website or listing
+- `["image", "<absolute url>"]` — cover image
+- `["phone", "<E.164 or human>"]`
+- `["payment_method", "<currency code>", "<type>"]` - e.g.: ["payment_method", "USD", "cash"]
+- `["address", "<street>", "<city>", "<region>", "<postal>", "<country>"]`
+- `["amenity", "<amenity type>"]`
+- `["hours", "<day of week abbrevation>", "<shift one>", "<shift two>", ...]` - e.g., ["hours","thu","09:00/12:30","13:30/17:00"]
+- `["L", "physical-location"]`
+- `["l", "<physical-location-type>", "physical-location"]` - freeform type labels used to reduce results for usecase (e.g., `business`, `rv-park`, `restaurant`, etc.)
+
+### 3.3. Optional tags
+
+- Non-indexed labels for usecase:
+  - `["rv_spaces", "<count>"]`
+  - `["booking_provider", "<booking provider name>", "<specific booking provider id>"]`
+
+### 3.4. Content
+
+- `content` is a plain text short readable description.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Geohash (`g`) Tag Rules
+
+- A `g` tag value is a standard **Base32 geohash** (lowercase), length 1–12.
+- Include **multiple** `g` tags forming a **coarse → fine ladder** for the same point, e.g.:
+
+  ```
+  ["g","d"]
+  ["g","dj"]
+  ["g","dj3"]
+  ["g","dj3p"]
+  ["g","dj3pz"]
+  ["g","dj3pzs"]
+  ["g","dj3pzsu"]
+  ["g","dj3pzsuc"]
+  ```
+
+- Reason: relays and clients can match `#g` **exactly** at any zoom level. The Place then appears in map queries that request any of those zoom-appropriate buckets.
+
+> Publishers **should** generate the ladder from a single point (lat/lon → geohash) and decide the deepest precision they care to expose (e.g., 7–8 chars for point-of-interest).
+
+---
+
+## 5. Querying
+
+### 5.1. Relay filters
+
+- Fetch all Places within a geohash bucket:
+
+  ```json
+  {
+    "kinds": [33000],
+    "#g": [
+      "dhvj",
+      "dhvm",
+      "dhvn",
+      "dhvp",
+      "dhvq",
+      "dhvr",
+      "dhvt",
+      "dhvw",
+      "dhvx",
+      "djj0",
+      "djj2",
+      "djj8"
+    ],
+    "#l": ["rv-park"]
+  }
+  ```
+
+- Zoom out: use shorter prefixes already present as `#g` values (e.g., `["dhv"]`).
+
+- Fetch/refresh a specific place (parameterized key):
+
+  ```json
+  {
+    "kinds": [33000],
+    "authors": ["<pubkey>"],
+    "#d": ["permit:FL:44-54-00003"]
+  }

+## 7. Client Guidance
+
+- Clients may choose to `limit` returned events at a more coarse precision.
+- For map tiles/zoom levels, choose the geohash precision to query:
+  - World/continent: 1–2 chars
+  - Region/state: 3–4
+  - Metro/city: 5–6
+  - Neighborhood/POI: 7–9
+- Query one or more `#g` values covering the viewport. (For polygons, derive covering geohash buckets and query all of them.)
+
+---
+
+## 8. Examples
+
+- https://rvparker.westernbtc.com
+
+## 9. Validation Rules and Privacy
+
+- Must have at least one `["d", ...]` and one `["g", ...]`.
+- `["g", ...]` must be valid Base32 geohash, lowercase, no `a,i,l,o`.
+- Publishing precise geohashes reveals location; authors may choose a coarser precision if needed.
