Convert address to coordinates
The location calculator converts an address or place name into geographic coordinates. Results are shown as decimal degrees, for example 40.758896 for latitude and -73.985130 for longitude. If you enter coordinates directly, the closest matching address is resolved as well.
What are these coordinates useful for?
- Location QR codes with a `geo:` payload
- Map links for flyers, notices and PDF documents
- Entries in spreadsheets, CMS systems or local directories
How to use latitude and longitude correctly
Latitude describes the north-south position, longitude the east-west position. For QR codes, this format is usually enough: geo:Latitude,Longitude.
Create a location QR code
After calculating, you can use the values in the QR code generator or in the QR code with logo tool as a location. The button Use geo payload opens the generator and automatically fills the location fields.
Map and address data can vary slightly by source. Check important print data before publishing.
