Is there a worldwide longitude/latitude location solution?

I'm trying to make a worldwide classified website that supports the world's locations. For example, when posting an ad, you can select your country, a sub location (such as state, if there is one) and enter your city. All locations should have longitude and latitude coordinates to allow distance searches.



I'm not looking for a huge database, but a 3rd party solution. I believe google and Microsoft have something. Is there anything else out there?Is there a worldwide longitude/latitude location solution?
Yes, worldatlas.com can find the longitude/latitude for a home address, major cities, towns and villages in any country. See the links below for additional information.

Generally your local weather bureau as each weather station sometimes do include longitude/latitude coordinates.
