The Bukkit Location Manager is a plugin for a Bukkit server that adds a few useful tools for accessing and managing the locations of players on the server. The current version is confirmed to work with Spigot-CraftBukkit version 1.8.8, and will maybe work on later versions without modification. A full list of commands that this plugin adds is included below.
This plugin uses my Bukkit SimplePlugin Library. The server must have that plugin installed for this plugin to work. SimplePlugin can be downloaded from GitHub

Usage: /getlocation <player> or /getloc <player> or /gl <player>
This command is usable only by players with admin privileges, or directly by the console. It will send you the current coordinates of the given player if they are online, or the coordinates of their last known position if they are offline.
Usage: /requestlocation <player> or /requestloc <player> or /reqloc <player>
This command will request that the given player send you their location. That player can then respond by using the TellLocation command, which will inform you of their location.
Usage: /telllocation [player] or /tellloc [player] or /tl [player]
This command will send your current coordinates to the given player. If no other player is specified, your location will be send to the last person that requested your location using the RequestLocation command.
Usage: /broadcastlocation [player] or /broadcastloc [player] or /broadloc [player] or /bl [player]
This command, if send without any arguments, will broadcast the coordinates of your location to every other player on the server. If an target player is given, and the sender is an OP on the server, the location of the specified player will be broadcast to all other players on the server.
Usage: /mylocation or /myloc or /ml
This command will return your own coordinates to you. It's not necessarily much more useful than using the built-in debug menu to look at your coordinates, but it's useful to reference when typing other commands.
