As per Wikipedia, Geo tagging is the process of adding location related metadata to various media's such as websites, photos, videos and messages, etc. This metadata usually consists of latitude, longitude, distance, altitude and place names, etc.

@MonodeepM - I'm not sure about this code insertion. Think so it is to inserted in the head section of the source page.

<meta name="ICBM" content="45.8, -64.2">
<meta name="geo.placename" content="Amherst, NS, Canada">
<meta name="geo.position" content="45.8;-64.2">
<meta name="geo.region" content="CA-NS">

in this case the location code is only single decimal precision, as it points to a town, increased decimals = greater precision to an individual location

GEO tags are important if you want to do local optimization and they also are making your link building more powerful.

Geo tagging can help users find a wide variety of location-specific information from your Device. For instance, someone can find images taken near a given location by entering latitude and longitude coordinates into a suitable image search engine.

It can help you to reach your website on your geo location based search query for your keywords. like country based tld Domains helps to rank on that country based search query.
