 This module allows you to manage saved places (Points of Interest) using the [remoteStorage](https://remotestorage.io/) protocol.
 
+It leverages [Geohashes](https://www.geohash.es/) to organize data, enabling efficient retrieval of places within specific geographic areas. This structure is particularly optimized for map applications that need to load data only for the visible viewport.
