It may be worth looking at some of the database programs used for Geocaching. 
If you're not aware of it, Geocaching is a 'sport' that involves finding caches 
hidden around the world using GPS coordinates. There is a good one for PC 
called GSAK (Geocaching Swiss Army Knife) which is either free or very cheap. I 
used it a lot when I was a PC person before getting a Mac. I've not been 
geocaching since I bought the Mac so I can't advise you of any Mac programs.
