+# GeocodeService Documentation
+
+## Overview
+The GeocodeService provides geocoding functionality through OpenStreetMap's Nominatim API, offering address lookup, reverse geocoding, and result caching capabilities.
+
+## Features
+
+### 1. Address to Coordinates
+- Forward geocoding (address to coordinates)
+- Address normalization and validation
+- Result confidence scoring
+- Batch processing support
+
+### 2. Coordinates to Address
+- Reverse geocoding (coordinates to address)
+- Multiple result handling
+- Address component extraction
+- Location type detection
+
+### 3. Cache Management
+- 24-hour TTL for results
+- Cache invalidation strategy
+- Memory optimization
+- Cache warming support
+
+### 4. Error Handling
+- Rate limit management
+- API error handling
+- Validation failures
+- Network timeouts
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+### Service Structure
+```php
+class GeocodeService
+{
+    public function geocode(string $address): ?array
+    public function reverseGeocode(float $lat, float $lon): ?array
+    public function batchGeocode(array $addresses): array
+    public function validateCoordinates(float $lat, float $lon): bool
+    public function clearCache(?string $key = null): void
+    public function warmCache(array $addresses): void
+}
+```
+
+### Cache Keys
+- Forward geocoding: `geocode:{normalized_address}`
+- Reverse geocoding: `reverse:{lat},{lon}`
+- TTL: 24 hours (configurable)
+
+### API Integration
+- Base URL: https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org
+- Rate Limiting: Max 1 request per second
+- User-Agent Required: "ThrillWiki Geocoder"
+- Response Format: JSON
+
+### Validation Rules
+- Latitude: -90 to 90
+- Longitude: -180 to 180
+- Address length: 5 to 200 characters
+- Required fields: street or city + country
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Forward Geocoding
+```php
+$geocoder = app(GeocodeService::class);
+$result = $geocoder->geocode('123 Main St, City, Country');
+// Returns: ['lat' => 12.34, 'lon' => 56.78, 'display_name' => '...', ...]
+```
+
+### Reverse Geocoding
+```php
+$geocoder = app(GeocodeService::class);
+$result = $geocoder->reverseGeocode(12.34, 56.78);
+// Returns: ['address' => [...], 'display_name' => '...', ...]
+```
+
+### Batch Processing
+```php
+$geocoder = app(GeocodeService::class);
+$results = $geocoder->batchGeocode(['address1', 'address2']);
+// Returns: ['address1' => [...], 'address2' => [...]]
+```
+
+## Error Handling
+
+### Exception Types
+1. GeocodingException
+   - Invalid input
+   - API errors
+   - Rate limiting
+2. ValidationException
+   - Invalid coordinates
+   - Invalid address format
+3. CacheException
+   - Cache access errors
+   - Invalid cache data
+
+### Error Responses
+```php
+try {
+    $result = $geocoder->geocode($address);
+} catch (GeocodingException $e) {
+    // Handle geocoding errors
+} catch (ValidationException $e) {
+    // Handle validation errors
+}
+```
+
+## Performance Optimization
+
+### Cache Strategy
+1. Cache all successful results
+2. Implement cache warming for common addresses
+3. Use cache tags for better management
+4. Regular cache cleanup
+
+### Batch Processing
+1. Group requests when possible
+2. Respect rate limits
+3. Parallel processing for large batches
+4. Error handling per item
+
+## Integration Points
+
+### 1. Location Model
+- Automatic geocoding on address changes
+- Cache management for stored locations
+- Coordinate validation
+
+### 2. HasLocation Trait
+- Geocoding helpers
+- Address formatting
+- Location type handling
+
+### 3. Components
+- Address search interface
+- Map display
+- Location selection
