GPS Coordinates of an Address — Latitude & Longitude
Find the GPS coordinates of any address, read an address back from a latitude/longitude, and place the point on the map — free, instant and without signing up.
Every place on Earth has two numbers: latitude, how far north or south of the equator it sits (−90° to +90°), and longitude, how far east or west of the Greenwich meridian (−180° to +180°). Together they pin a location to the metre.
The same point can be written two ways. Decimal degrees keep it short — the centre of Paris is 48.8566, 2.3522 — while DMS splits each value into degrees, minutes and seconds (48°51′24″N 2°21′08″E). Phones and most apps use decimal degrees; printed maps and marine charts often use DMS. This page shows both at once.
Type an address to read off its coordinates, paste a latitude/longitude to get the matching address, tap “My location” to use your own position, or click anywhere on the map to drop a pin. It’s handy for sharing a precise meeting point, telling a delivery exactly where the entrance is, or noting a spot you found while out walking.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find the GPS coordinates of an address?
Type the address in the address field. We look it up and show the latitude and longitude in decimal degrees and DMS, with the exact spot marked on the map.
What are latitude and longitude?
Latitude measures how far north or south a place is (−90° to +90°); longitude measures how far east or west (−180° to +180°). The pair uniquely identifies any point on Earth.
What is the difference between decimal degrees and DMS?
Decimal degrees write a coordinate as two numbers, like 48.8566, 2.3522. DMS splits each into degrees, minutes and seconds, like 48°51′24″N. They describe the same place — decimal is easier to copy, DMS is common on maps.
How do I get my own current GPS position?
Tap “My location” and allow your browser to access your position. Your coordinates and address appear instantly; nothing is stored.
