Typed Places — §23 Generalized Place Taxonomy

Every location is a typed entity on the civic geo-graph — business · POI · service/utility · org — all carrying placePath, feed, follow, and per-kind trust gates. The same spine that powers civic villages powers your kirana store, the Gandak ghat, and the electric feeder that serves 14 villages.

🏪 business = owner-claim + verify 📍 POI = open, steward-moderated service/utility = verified-only broadcast 🛡 verification = broadcast rights

§23 — Typed Place taxonomy · Design spec

Five screens cover the full UX surface of §23. Each kind has its own trust gate; the geo-graph spine (placePath) is identical for all. Verification = broadcast rights — the spam wall that makes utility alerts trustworthy.

TRUST MODEL

Per-kind trust gates

§23.1 — same geo-graph, different permission layers
  • POI — open add; steward-moderated dedup
  • Business — anyone adds stub; owner claims + verifies to edit/promote/respond
  • Org/Institution — verified creation required
  • Service/Utility — verified-only creation AND broadcast (§23.3 GATE)
  • Broadcast = verification receipt — the spam wall for utility alerts
  • Coverage auto-derived for govt authority; utility self-defines on claim
