How can I use the user’s location to zoom in on the map to nearby locations on Glide Pages?

If you add a distance column to get the user’s distance to all locations, then you. an filter your map to only show locations within a certain radius. That will cause the map to zoom in to a more specific area.

Is there any way to log the users’ location when they submit something?

I see you are using location component. As long as you are using that and the user has turned the switch on, you can take that value and write it permanently to a basic column.
