Description

HOW IT WORKS
With just a button located at the top right of the Google Maps website (below your Google account image), you can manually or automatically copy and paste the GPS coordinates of any selected place in DD format (decimal degrees), in DD format (decimal degrees) and in DMS format (degrees, minutes & seconds), with its latitude and longitude, respectively.
You will also see its Google's plus code and its MGRS (Military Grid Reference System).

For example, if you select Barcelona on Google Maps and then click on our magic button, you will see its coordinates in this different formats:
- DD (decimal degrees): 41.382894, 2.177432.
- DM (degrees and decimal minutes): 41°22.9736'N 2°10.6459'N.
- DMS (degrees, minutes & seconds): 41°22'58.4"N 2°10'38.8"E.
- Plus Code: 8FH495MG+5X.
- MGRS (Military Grid Reference System): 31TDF3122281589.

Remember this Google Chrome's utility is used to show the coordinates of any area, township, commerce, point of interest (POI / POI) or even a place anywhere in the world selected directly on the map. Even if there is no exact information, you will get its exact GPS position ;)

If nothing is selected, the information displayed will be the position of the center of the screen.

QR CODES
Next to each coordinate there is an icon to create a QR code and scan it, for example, with your smartphone or tablet to send that information easily to that device.
You can also create QR codes to scan them with your mobile device and directly open Google Maps or MAPS.ME app with your specific point or place. Cool, ¿right?

SEND TO GMAPS
With this extension installed on your browser, after selecting a text (usually an address or place) on any website, right click on the menu to select the option "Search this in Google Maps" to search it directly there.
In just 1 click, you will do all this: Select and copy the text, open a new tab with GMaps, paste the text into the search box and press the enter key. Very cool, right?

PLUS CODES
When a specific address is not available, or just for convenience, it's possible to use a plus code to find or share a place on GMaps, such as a company or home address.

MGRS
The Military Grid Reference System is a grid-based system used to represent locations using the Mercator Transverse Universal Projection (UTM) and Universal Polar Stereographic Projection (UPS) grid systems, expressed as an alphanumeric character string. It's used as geocode for the entire Earth.

COMBINABLE WITH OTHER GOOGLE CHROME EXTENSIONS
★ Pushbullet (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/pushbullet/chlffgpmiacpedhhbkiomidkjlcfhogd): Once you have this extension installed, select the text field with the desired information, and from the context menu (right mouse button) press Pushbullet and send it to the device you need. Useful if you use a map service that is not compatible with our QR codes (but you can send me a message and I'll try to implement it).

COMBINABLE WITH OTHER MAP APPS
★ Maps.me: Using the Pushbullet extension in Google Chrome as detailed above, or using the option to generate a QR code in this Google Chrome extension, it's so easy to send the situation of a place (from your computer or laptop) to other map apps like MAPS.ME (Maps with me). It's infinitely faster to search for a place with its latitude and longitude that with its name in that application. Try it and tell us!

HELP US TO IMPROVE
Don't hesitate to send us improvements, suggestions, doubts and errors. I will implement it as soon as possible :)

Thank you very much for all your support!

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
