Standardized Link Type for Address

Is there any sort of standardized way to format links to addresses? Emails have href='mailto:[email]' and most phones (and Skype) support the href='tel:[phone#]', so I'm wondering if there's some sort of standardized practice for addresses, as opposed to just linking back to a specific provider like Google Maps.

The closest standard is for the geo: scheme which lets you specify latitude and longitude.
