Hi Kurt,
that sounds like fun, but I have no idea how to access geolocation data.
This would be a great extension for Org-mode, both geotaggging of
location
in the logbook, and export to KLM.
Is there anyone around here who understands how these things work and
who would
be willing to help?

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:
