Location QR Code Generator

Send people to a pin. A scan opens the coordinates in Google Maps, which works from both iPhone and Android cameras.

Between −90 and 90.

Between −180 and 180.

A pin, not a typed address

Coordinates survive better than a street address when the place is a trailhead, a booth, or a new building. Copy them from the map app: latitude first, then longitude.

The code links to Google Maps at that point. The person can still choose Apple Maps or another app if the phone offers one. Check the pin before you print.

Questions

Which number is latitude?

Latitude runs north and south and stays between −90 and 90. Longitude runs east and west and stays between −180 and 180. Pasting them backwards drops the pin in the wrong country.

Can I use a street address?

Use the URL generator for a maps link you already copied. This page is for a numeric pin, which is more reliable on signs.

How many decimal places do I need?

Five decimal places is enough for a doorway. More digits do not make the code more useful.
