Understanding GPS Coordinate Systems
Latitude
- • Coordinates representing north and south from the equator
- • Range: -90° to +90°
- • Positive: Northern Hemisphere, Negative: Southern Hemisphere
- • California (USA) is approximately in the 32°~42° range
Longitude
- • Coordinates representing east and west from the Prime Meridian
- • Range: -180° to +180°
- • Positive: East longitude, Negative: West longitude
- • California (USA) is approximately in the -125° to -114° range

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the accuracy of GPS coordinates?
Typical GPS receivers provide accuracy of 3-5 meters. Our tool uses Google Maps API to provide very high accuracy coordinate data. For commercial use or precise surveying, we recommend using professional GPS equipment.
Can I search for international addresses?
Yes, you can search addresses from all regions worldwide. Enter addresses in English or local languages to get accurate GPS coordinates. Since address systems vary by country, please enter as detailed an address as possible.
How can I utilize coordinate data?
Obtained GPS coordinates can be used for various purposes: map application development, real estate management systems, logistics optimization, location-based marketing, GIS database construction, etc. Copy coordinates to save in Excel or databases for utilization.
Can I convert coordinate systems (WGS84, UTM, etc.)?
Currently, our tool provides latitude/longitude format in WGS84 coordinate system. This is the standard coordinate system used by GPS and most mapping services. For conversion to UTM or other coordinate systems, we recommend using professional GIS software.
