How to Convert Google Maps Coordinates

Convert Google Map coordinates to exact locations.

Google Maps offers latitude and longitude coordinates for every location searched for using its interface. Coordinates allow an alternate means of entering target locations to a higher degree of accuracy. Coordinates can be converted to an exact location on Google Maps to display the address or area associated with it.

Instructions

1. Open your Web browser and navigate to Google Maps (see Resources).

2. Enter the coordinates to convert in the search box.

3. Click "Search Maps." The address associated with your coordinates are displayed in the left window pane.

Tips & Warnings

• You can also use a third party coordinate converter to get a general idea of where the location exists (see Resources).
