Is a Vedic Moon sign the same as a Sun sign?

No. The Moon sign is the sidereal sign occupied by the Moon at the birth moment. A date-only Sun sign is a different calculation.

Why does the calculator need a birthplace?

The birthplace identifies the historical time zone needed to convert the recorded local birth time to the correct astronomical instant.

Which ayanamsha does this calculator use?

It uses the Lahiri ayanamsha and reports the calculated sidereal Moon, Janma Rashi, Nakshatra and Pada.
