Hi Marble developers, I spoke briefly with Albert Vaca, the maintainer of KDE Connect, who referred me this email address. I'm not sure if you have heard of what3words, but essentially we are a way of referring to any location in the world in an accurate and easily communicable way. We divided the world into 57 trillion 3m x 3m squares, and then assigned a unique 3 word address to every square. So while I am writing to you from our office at index.home.raft , the entrance to the Sydney Opera House is at spoon.belong.vote . Every single 3m x 3m square on the world's surface has a 3 word address in this way. This is useful when trying to express your location or trying to navigate or deliver things to poorly addressed areas (most of the world). We have an open API which simply converts 3 word addresses into GPS coordinates, and vice-versa. It would be great to talk about the possibility of integrating this into Marble. Please feel free to get in touch if this sounds like something you would be interested in. Best,
