is there a standard way to encode the user location (country, state/region, town), so that I can ask the user to select these items upon registration and then use this data to show his location on the map?
The ISO 3166 specification is the widely accepted standard for country and “primary subdivision” (i.e. state, province, canton, etc.) codes. Note that this is different than storing address data.
