A NIC could serve a new top level domain ".geo"

The hierarchy under that domain could be predefined as
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UN/LOCODE UN LOCODE].[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-2 ISO 3166-2 subdivision].[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1 ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code].geo
For example:
nyc.ny.us.geo for New York, USA and
cgn.nw.de.geo for Cologne, Germany.

Airports could be listed under [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IATA IATA code].airport.geo.

IATA codes and location codes could link conveniently to a map of the region. (e.g. on Google Earth or similar services, possibly based on user preferences).
On the next level businesses could reserve their own homepages.
All "www" addresses could be reserved as free redirects to the home page of a city, region or airport.
