Thanks for mentionning libchamplain. Just in case anyone never heard of it:
http://projects.gnome.org/libchamplain/
A proposed widget to display maps in your applications.

Geoclue: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/GeoClue
A modular geoinformation service to make creating location-aware
applications as simple as possible.

With Geoclue, get your position and convert addresses into positions,
with libchamplain display that information!
