### In Progress
1. [ ] Location System Implementation
   - Model structure design
   - Polymorphic relationships
   - Map integration
   - Location selection

### Next Steps
1. Location System
   - [ ] Create location model
   - [ ] Add polymorphic relationships
   - [ ] Implement geocoding service
   - [ ] Create map component
   - [ ] Add location selection
   - [ ] Implement search
   - [ ] Add clustering
   - [ ] Create distance calculations

2. Performance Optimization
   - [ ] Implement query caching
   - [ ] Add index optimization
   - [ ] Create monitoring tools
   - [ ] Set up profiling

## Technical Decisions Made

### Recent Implementations

1. Statistics Caching Design
   - Service-based architecture
   - Hierarchical caching
   - Automatic invalidation
   - Performance monitoring

2. Cache Management
   - 24-hour TTL
   - Batch processing
   - Error handling
   - Logging system

3. Performance Features
   - Efficient key structure
   - Optimized data format
   - Minimal cache churn
   - Memory management

### Core Architecture Patterns

1. Model Organization
   - Base models with consistent traits
   - Enum-based status handling
   - Automatic statistics updates
   - Slug history tracking

2. Data Relationships
   - Operators own parks
   - Parks contain areas
   - Areas can nest
   - Statistics rollup

## Notes and Considerations
1. Need to research map providers
2. Consider caching geocoding results
3. May need clustering for large datasets
4. Should implement distance-based search
5. Consider adding location history
6. Plan for offline maps
7. Consider adding route planning
8. Need to handle map errors
9. Consider adding location sharing
10. Plan for mobile optimization
11. Consider adding geofencing
12. Need location validation
