This is a simple module to let users store their location on the edit account page. It uses HTML5’s geolocation API and stores latitude and longitude. How you use that data is up to other modules.

It was used on Drupal.org when Drupal.org used Drupal 6.

For more than users or for a Drupal 7 version, try Geolocation Field with the Geolocation HTML5 widget. Now that it is on Drupal 7, Drupal.org uses the Geolocation Field for this feature.
