Find latitude & longitude for any point on Earth

GPS coordinates pinpoint any location on the planet using two numbers: latitude (how far north or south of the equator) and longitude (how far east or west of the prime meridian). This finder turns a spot on the map into those numbers instantly, and back again. Drop a pin to read its coordinates, paste coordinates to jump straight to a point, or type an address to geocode it. Every result is shown in the three formats people actually use — decimal degrees for apps and databases, DMS for maps and surveying, and decimal minutes for marine and aviation navigation.

Beyond the raw numbers, each point is enriched with its nearest address, ground elevation, local time and timezone, and the named landmarks around it. Measure the straight-line distance and compass bearing from where you are standing to any target, then share the exact spot with a link or open it in your favourite maps app.

Frequently asked questions

How do I find the GPS coordinates of a location?

Click anywhere on the map to drop a pin and read its latitude and longitude instantly. You can also search for an address or place name, drag the pin to fine-tune, or tap “My location” to use your device's GPS.

What is the difference between DD, DMS and DDM?

They are three ways to write the same coordinate. Decimal Degrees (DD) uses a single decimal number like 51.4779. Degrees Minutes Seconds (DMS) splits it into 51°28'40"N. Degrees Decimal Minutes (DDM), common in marine and aviation use, gives 51°28.674'N. This tool shows all three at once and lets you copy any of them.

Is this GPS coordinates finder free?

Yes. Finding coordinates, converting formats, reverse geocoding, elevation, timezone and nearby places are all free with no sign-up. The site is supported by ads.

How accurate are the coordinates and elevation?

Map coordinates are as precise as the point you select — down to a few centimetres of numeric resolution, though real-world accuracy depends on the map imagery. Elevation comes from a global digital elevation model (roughly 90 m resolution), so it is a good estimate rather than a survey-grade value.

Can I share a specific coordinate with someone?

Yes. The page URL updates automatically as you move the pin, and the “Copy share link” button gives you a direct link that opens the map on that exact point. You can also open the point straight in Google Maps or Apple Maps.
