According to the documentation the GeoPoint requires:

Latitude values in the range of [-90, 90]. Longitude values in the range of [-180, 180].

Which according to the Wikipedia entry matches the values:

Longitude is given as an angular measurement ranging from 0° at the Prime Meridian to +180° eastward and −180° westward.

With that said the documentation actually suggests to avoid this type and go for separate numeric fields due to limitations on queries, and suggests Geo queries for simple distance-based apps.
