Mapping Geo location Code on on vf page with updating lat/long with marker

Hello Experts

I am new to the Visualforce, 
i am working on a requirement where live Location has to be tracked on the VF page Google maps Including Markers with help of Geolocation latitude and langitude which must be fetched from custom object (Contact_Check_In__c)

My Custom Object name is Contact_Check_In__c
 and i have fields called geolocation(GeoLocation__c)
With Lot of effort and searching i came accross vf page and apex controller, all is ok but it is not capturing the Live Geolocation

all i want is vf page has to take the dynamic geolocation from the record and show it on the google maps on vf page

i refered this blogs still not able to resolve my issue
