      summary: Microsoft Windows 10 Get current geographic position
      description: Retrieves the current geographic position using Geolocator.GetGeopositionAsync. Returns a Geoposition containing a Geocoordinate with latitude, longitude, altitude, accuracy, heading, speed, and timestamp. Accuracy depends on the position source (GNSS ~10m, Wi-Fi ~30-500m, cellular ~300-3000m, IP ~300-10000m).
