“A D­Bus service that applications can use to become location aware. Makes reading and writing geographical information as simple and easy as time or date.”

A person determines her surroundings through the five human senses. Software doesn’t operate in a vacuum, either; through connections to hardware and other software, it can sense much about the user’s situation.

...the most interesting spatial landmark is usually “here.” Obviously, a software roadmap needs to know the user’s location, but so does the bus schedule, as well as business listings, transportation planners, travel guides, and much other information software.
