Example 1: This example shows you how to return a zone name by doing /loc x y z in the chatbox or just loc x y z in console ( replace x, y and z with the co-ords you wanna check, eg /loc 1200 523 12.3 )

function playerLoc ( source, command, x, y, z )
  local location = getZoneName ( x, y, z )
  outputChatBox ( "* Location: " .. location, getRootElement(), 0, 255, 255 ) -- Output the zone name
end
addCommandHandler( "loc", playerLoc )

Example 2: This example will tell you what zone a specified player is in when the "getloc" console command is used.

function scriptGetLoc ( source, command, playername ) --when getloc is called
  local thePlayer = getPlayerFromNick ( playername ) --get the player from nickname
  if ( thePlayer ~= false ) then --if there is a player from the nickname
    local x, y, z = getElementPosition ( player )
    local location = getZoneName ( x, y, z )
	local city = getZoneName ( x, y, z, true )
    outputChatBox ( playername .. " is at " .. location .. " (" .. city .. ")", source ) --announce his zone
  else outputChatBox ( "Player does not exist" )
  end
end
addCommandHandler( "getloc", scriptGetLoc ) -- add a command "getloc" which initiates "scriptGetloc" function
