Apple disallows use of geolocation by iPhone app devs just for ads

  Where do you get location-targeted ads from? I don't think adsense allows you to target by location.

    I know that DoubleClick allows location-targeted ads; I'm sure other ad platforms do as well.

    Google Ad Manager allows you to target by location.

      It seems to do geotargeting by IP address of the user. There should be an API that allows the publisher to pass latitude/longitude as retrieved from the GPS and get targeted ads as a result. Google AdWords allow targeting by proximity for local businesses, at least in Google's own searches.

  This is a good thing for users go because the iPhone's GPS is pretty expensive battery-wise.
