Google Maps Link Parser Guide

Pull the latitude and longitude out of a Google Maps link and export it as JSON, CSV, SQL or GeoJSON.

A coordinate pair is a latitude (north/south) and a longitude (east/west). Google Maps Link Parser extracts a pair from some full Maps links or from plain coordinates, then writes it in another format. It does not open the map or check that the pin is accurate.

Start with a plain pair

Replace Maps link or coordinates with 0, 10 and change Label to Demo. Leave Output format on Decimal degrees: Output should read 0, 10. Choose JSON to see the label, latitude 0, and longitude 10 as named fields. Choose GeoJSON: its point coordinates are [10, 0] because GeoJSON uses longitude first, unlike the input. Copy takes the displayed text; Download saves it as location.txt regardless of selected format.

For a full link such as https://www.google.com/maps/@-6.2088,106.8456,15z, the tool first takes coordinates after @. If none are found, it tries other patterns. A short redirect link cannot be expanded here; open it yourself only if you trust it, then paste a full URL. No coordinates found in that link means the text did not match a supported pair; check the link or enter the coordinates directly. Location information can be sensitive—use example coordinates when sharing output.

Questions you might have

Why does a short link not work?
A maps.app.goo.gl link only reveals its coordinates after a network request follows the redirect, and this page makes no requests. Open the link once in a browser and paste the full URL from the address bar.
Which part of the link is used?
The viewport centre after the @ sign comes first, then the place coordinates marked with !3d and !4d, then query parameters such as q or destination. The first valid pair wins.
Why are the coordinates rounded?
Decimal and export formats round the parsed coordinates to six places for readability. This does not improve the accuracy of the original map location; do not treat the last digit as a measurement guarantee.
