Latitude & Longitude Finder
Click anywhere on a world map to read precise latitude and longitude. Copy as text, Google Maps URL, or OpenStreetMap link.
Click anywhere on the map to drop a pin, or use your device location.
Drop a pin anywhere on an OpenStreetMap base layer and read latitude and longitude to six decimal places. Use the device location button to start at where you are, then refine by clicking, dragging, or typing coordinates directly. One-click copy buttons format the result as plain text, a Google Maps share URL, or an OpenStreetMap link.
Every web service that takes a location asks for it in a slightly different way. Google Maps wants a query string, OpenStreetMap wants mlat and mlon parameters, a database column wants raw numbers. Looking up a precise coordinate usually means clicking through a UI that hides the value, then copy-pasting from a deeply nested popup.
This finder makes the lookup the entire job. Click anywhere on the MapLibre map and a marker drops at the click point with latitude and longitude shown to six decimal places, which resolves to roughly ten centimetres of precision. The device geolocation button asks the browser for the current position and recenters the map there. The coordinate inputs accept manual entry, useful when you need to verify a value pasted from somewhere else by seeing where it lands.
Three copy buttons cover the common cases. The first writes a comma-separated lat, lng string suitable for spreadsheets, env files, and database inserts. The second produces a Google Maps URL that opens the location with a marker. The third writes an OpenStreetMap link with the same marker behaviour. All coordinates are WGS 84, which is what consumer mapping platforms expect.
- 1
Pick a point
Click anywhere on the map to drop a marker, or press Use My Location to start at your current position via the browser geolocation API.
- 2
Refine if needed
Type into the latitude or longitude inputs and press Move marker to update the pin. Useful for verifying a coordinate you already have.
- 3
Copy the result
Use the copy buttons to grab the coordinate as plain text, a Google Maps URL, or an OpenStreetMap link, formatted to six decimal places.
Seed development data
Grab a few realistic coordinates for fixture data without leaving the browser or hitting a geocoding API.
Share a place
Copy a Google Maps or OpenStreetMap link to a precise spot and paste it into a chat or document.
Verify pasted coordinates
Type a coordinate someone sent you and see exactly where it lands. Catches longitude sign flips and swapped lat lng pairs immediately.
Field planning
Mark a meeting point or survey location at sub-meter precision, then send the link to someone joining you.
Is my location data sent anywhere?
No. Coordinates stay on the page. The browser geolocation API runs locally, and the map only requests base tiles from OpenStreetMap, which see the viewport, not your selected point.
How precise are the coordinates?
Six decimal degrees, which is roughly ten centimetres at the equator. Map pixel-level click accuracy is the real limit, so practical precision matches the zoom level.
What coordinate system is used?
WGS 84, the geodetic datum used by GPS, Google Maps, OpenStreetMap, and consumer mapping platforms in general.
Why is the Use My Location button asking for permission?
Browsers require explicit consent before sharing geolocation with a page. The permission prompt is from your browser, not this site, and you can deny it without losing other features.
Does the coordinate change if I drag the marker?
The current build updates on click rather than drag. Click a new point and the marker moves there. The coordinate inputs accept typed updates for fine adjustments.
