Documentation	Abstract parent type for all Met Objects located at a single geosaptial point or point-like location (airport, city, observation station,..). Moving point objects can be modeled using DynamicMeteorologicalObject with multiple point objects as collection content. Mutual display priority levels of point-like objects can be given with displayPriority property: The rendering engine should start dropping the objects out in descending priority order if it cannot properly position all the point objects into the given display size using the given preferredRenderingSize (the ones with lowest numeric priority value will remain visible last).
