/**
 * Implements a single Location API native landmark
 *
 * The landmark can have different attributes and address information
 * such as name, description, position or country and city information.
 *
 * A single landmark can be associated to many different categories but
 * the categories must defined in the store in which the landmark belongs
 * to. The landmark can implicitly belong to many different stores but
 * explicitly it can belong to one landmark store at a time.
 *
 * If the landmark is associated to a store it tries to read its data
 * when the data is requested from the object. This optimizes the
 * performance of the API in cases where the client does not need to
 * display the whole item at once.
