If you use external tables or indices of any type, I highly recommend
synchronizing them to the standard postmeta keys discussed in this
thread and outlined here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Geodata

Not only do you increase interoperability with other plugins and apps,
you also ensure data portability: postmeta ends up in the WP Export
file, so import/export is taken care of for free.
