Now, I need Global Position System coordinates as a data type. How do

You can use the postgis extension:

create extension postgis;

Then you can create a geography coulmn

location geography( point, 4326)

and insert a lat /long as a point like this:
ST_GeographyFromText('SRID=4326;POINT(%(longitude)s %(latitude)s)'),
