Yes! I geotag photos on Instagram more often than I check in on Foursquare.
A small hiccup here is that unlike Foursquare the Instagram webhooks don't send the user's e-mail address, so I'm going to have to build some database to link an Instagram user ID with an e-mail address that we ask for when the user connects.
One issue is the IG locations are Facebook locations, which tend to be much lower quality (in my experience) unless they are claimed.
Instagram locations also pull up massive boundaries, like "all of Chicago" or "all of [this neighborhood]". Does that pose a problem?

Instgram allows you to geotag a media posting with a location and they have support for webhooks. Let's add support for them.
