There's a lot of prior and parallel work you may want to review:
http://georss.org/Main_Page
http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html
and ongoing work in the W3C

# Question
On RDFa vocabulary, I would really like a solution with geo:lat and geo:long,
Ideas?
Am I overlooking something obvious here? There is lat, long properties
in wgs84 vocab. So,
<span about="http://dbpedia.org/resource/Montreal">
<span property="geo:lat"
content="45.5"
datatype="xsd:float"></span>
<span property="geo:lat"
content="-73.666667"
datatype="xsd:float"></span>
Montreal
</span>
Tabbed for readability. You might need to get rid of whitespace.

Better yet:
<li about="http://dbpedia.org/resource/Montreal">
<span property="geo:lat"
...
