after meeting up with and chatting with @liaizon about geotagging and note-taking … I've come up with a nice way to integrate geotags into my #TiddlyWiki
Thanks to @Jermolene GeoSpatial plugin, I was about to create some metadata gui elements which reveal a note's origin GPS coordinates, and its latest revisions GPS coordinates, by modifying the subtitle shadow tiddler.
Now the subtitle—in addition to showing the timestamps—contains a location pin icon for the origin GPS coordinates, and a globe icon for the last modified version GPS coordinates.
These are set manually, just to keep things more intentional and optimized, via two new ViewToolbar buttons: fetch current coordinates (for the most recent coordinates) … and set created coordinates, which will populate fields for a tiddler's origin coords.
The subtitle icons themselves function as buttons, which re-direct to a note that is generated via a template containing a geomap widget, and the coordinates as the note title, stored when either of the two ViewToolbar buttons is pressed.

I think it will be interesting to start collecting this additional information for certain notes on a case-by-case basis.
For instance, maybe the place a note was generated holds a particular significance, and now that information can live on as part of the note's metadata.
