[Orgmode] geolocation / geotagging in org-mode

[Kurt Schwehr]

Hi all,

I have a couple questions about geolocation in org mode.  I am still in 
the first two weeks of learning org mode and shifting my workflow to it.

* Is there a standard way to specify a point, line, polygon in org mode?

We take a lot of notes about installation of science gear in the field 
and make observations.  Being able to tag where this was in a standard 
way would be great.  I just write WKT (Well-know text), but if there is 
already a standard for org mode, it would be good for me to stick with that.

* Is there an easy way to call a geolocation service from inside of 
org-mode to tag the location of an entry?

* And, Has there been any thought to exporting a time and location 
tagged KML of a document?  This would make reporting notes from research 
cruises on ships from org mode be really powerful.

It would be great to move beyond the hand crafted things that I do for 
this.  Imagine a field scientist with a laptop or MobileOrg taking 
notes.  One example of the kind of thing that I would like to produce:
