The other route which would with recent OSG versions would be to copy the
GeographicLocation data to the a Node's UserValue i.e.
node->setValue("latitude", geographicLocation->latitude());
node->setValue("longitude", geographicLocation->longitude));
The values then would be serialized automatically.
