Usage guideline

• Geonames geographical name decoding is used.
• It can be checked at geonames whether the geographical name exists or not.
• If it exits, then the geographical coordinate of the name can be decoded and the map view can be rendered.
• An alternative name for existing can be created, see geonames manual.
• If it does not exist, then it can be created. Detail information can be checked at geonames manual.
• Normally it takes a few days until the API can decode the newly added name, see geonames update.
