What is STORE_GEODATA?

[shalak]

Docs say:

Set to true if you want to store geodata in the database. This will increase the size of the database and will require more disk space.

But what's the meaning of this? If this is false (default), where is the geodata stored? What exactly is the geodata? Isn't it actual GPS coordinates, i.e. the key datapoint to be stored in db?

It's the reverse geocoded data for each of your points. By default you have longitude, latitude and timestamp stored in the database along with some other data. If set this env var to true and if you have photon configured, reverse geocoding data will be stored in your database in the points table and then used to suggest visits to places. If not, the data will be taken directly from photon and visits will be suggested based on result of such requests with no reverse geocoding data stored in the points table
