<anyElement>
   <geourl:longitude>-118.25201</geourl:longitude>
   <geourl:latitude>34.0456</geourl:latitude>
</anyElement>

or, because its defined in RDF, in the equivalent Syntax:

<anyElement geourl:longitude="-118.25201" geourl:latitude="34.0456" />

There are serval other Schemas to add a Location. The Schemes are:
