Also investigate merging with https://www.drupal.org/project/geolocation
The two modules are overlapping.

This issue is about the port to D8. You should create your own support request issue in the queue of GeoField itself.

When installing geofield via composer, geophp (the library) is installed in the folder vendor/phayes. Suggest to extract geophp to vendor/phayes and see whether that works.
