# Place Schema

Add Place structured data to your Sanity documents to describe physical locations and venues for Google Maps and local search.

## About Place Schema

Place schema describes physical locations and venues with address, geo, and related location details. It helps search engines understand location-based entities and can support local discovery when paired with accurate visible content, LocalBusiness data, and up-to-date external profiles.

## Fields

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `name` | string | Yes | The name of the place or venue. |
| `address.addressLocality` | string | No | The city or locality where the place is located. |
| `address.addressCountry` | string | No | The country where the place is located (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code). |

## Plugin Registration

```typescript
import { defineConfig } from "sanity";
import { seoFields } from "sanity-plugin-seofields";
import { schemaOrgPlacePlugin } from "sanity-plugin-seofields/schema";

export default defineConfig({
  // ...your sanity config
  plugins: [
    seoFields(),
    schemaOrgPlacePlugin(),
  ],
});
```

## Schema Usage

Add the `schemaOrgPlace` field to any document schema:

```typescript
import { defineField, defineType } from 'sanity'

export default defineType({
  name: 'page',
  title: 'Page',
  type: 'document',
  fields: [
    // ... your other fields
    defineField({
      name: 'schemaOrgPlace',
      title: 'Place Schema',
      type: 'schemaOrgPlace',
    }),
  ],
})
```

## GROQ Query

```javascript
*[_type == "yourDocumentType"][0]{
  ...,
  schemaOrgPlace
}
```

## Next.js Component

```tsx
import { PlaceSchema } from "sanity-plugin-seofields/schema/next";

export default function Page({ data }) {
  return (
    <>
      <PlaceSchema data={data.schemaOrgPlace} />
      {/* Your page content */}
    </>
  );
}
```
