Address to GPS Coordinates
Type any street address, place name, or landmark and get its exact GPS coordinates — latitude and longitude in 8 formats, plus a map pin you can fine-tune by clicking. Works worldwide, powered by OpenStreetMap data through our own privacy proxy.
Coordinates — 8 formats
Click anywhere on the map to move the pin and re-read coordinates.
Tips for better matches
- Add context: “Baker Street, London” beats “Baker Street” — street names repeat across the world.
- Landmarks work: “Eiffel Tower”, “Gateway of India”, “Sydney Opera House” resolve directly; no address needed.
- House numbers: include them for door-level pins where the map data has them; otherwise you get the street centroid — drag the pin to fine-tune, all 8 formats update live.
- Non-Latin scripts are fine: the geocoder understands local names (東京駅, Красная площадь, कनॉट प्लेस).
Forward vs reverse geocoding
Forward geocoding (this page) turns text into coordinates. Reverse geocoding turns coordinates into an address — that happens automatically on the location finder when your position is found. Both directions run through this site's own server proxy with rate-limiting and result caching, so the upstream service never sees your browser, your IP, or your query history. Developers can use the same engine programmatically via the free API.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert an address to GPS coordinates?
Type the address (add the city or country for common street names) and press Get coordinates. Pick the right match, then read or copy all 8 formats; drag the pin to fine-tune.
Is this free? Are there limits?
Free for interactive use, with polite rate-limiting to respect OpenStreetMap's geocoder. Developers who need volume can get a free API key on the Developer API page.
Why does my address resolve to the street's midpoint?
The map data may lack your house number. Drag the pin to the exact door — every format updates live as you move it.
