Not sure about Nostr based, but the data that nym pulls and links to is from openstreetmap.org

I know. And I love openstreetmaps! I was (incoherently 😀) making a different point Today, I was with some friends and we were sharing locations with each other as Google URLs. And your note reminded me that I've often thought that we need a vendor-independent way to link to locations (I'll edit my post a little to clarify)

That’d be cool. So where you could also get directions to the geohash location?

Yes. By default, I guess most people would configure their app to use Google Maps to open the location and to plan a route to that location. But, with an open specification of how to specify locations, we could gradually transition away from Google Maps (and Apple Maps or whatever else is used)
