Looks exactly like Cool Location except its not free.
Actually there are a number of extensions for this, and worth noting that CoolLocation is no loner supported. As for geotagger it looks like it has a great interface. Is it using fieldframe like SL Google Map or just javascript?

Geotagger is MSM compatible and also supports use on multiple weblogs/channels. Cool location appears to only support use on one weblog/channel.

Thanks for your comments on the interface, Geotagger is only using javascript. There was no real need to use fieldframe in the use case I was trying to solve. Also, when you are trying to build store locator type functionality with EE, it’s important to have your latitude and longitude data in two distinct custom fields so you can query off of them.
Great extension. Slotted in as the perfect replacement for the buggy cool-location. As you mentioned SL Google Map falls over when you want the location data in separate fields for proximity queries.
Great extension.
Thanks so much!

I think SL Google Map was intended for a slightly different purpose so I wouldn’t say it “falls over”. It’s a great extension that serves its purpose well.
I really like SL Google Map - just the way it store its data doesn’t work for me.
I do appear to have found a small bug in geotagger. Whatever I do I can’t change the “Enter Map Zoom Level:” from anything other than 13. If I change it to say 15, lcik submit, and then go staright back in to the settings its reverting to 13.
Let me see if I can recreate the issue. It sounds like the settings aren’t being refreshed. Is the zoom level of 15 sticking when you go to the Publish Form?

No it appears to still be 13
I sent you an email with a fix, let me know if you have any other issues.
Fix works perfectly. Thanks for getting it done so quickly.
This extension seems not to work together with the Solspace Related Entries Module …
Hi Jason,
This extension looks fantastic! Does it work with custom profile fields? It would be very useful to be able to enter this type of data for users (e.g., vendors who sell a product and customers who buy the products).
