Map place names to coordinates #10

Description

@Kaljurand

The current solution of mapping placenames to themselves has several problems

  • assumes that the executing app can do geocoding
  • assumes that the executing app has knowledge of Estonian, e.g. that 'Tolla' and 'Tõlla' are not spelling variants
  • does not handle naming ambiguity within the grammar

There should be at least 2 linearization formats:

  • 59.123,24.321 (coordinates)
  • Village name, County name (disambiguation in language X)

The downside is that the grammar gets 3 times bigger.
