About Geolocation Viewer
The Geolocation Viewer reads your current position straight from the browser Geolocation API and presents it in a clear, copyable report.
With one click — and your permission — it shows your latitude and longitude in both familiar decimal degrees and traditional degrees-minutes-seconds notation, along with the reported accuracy radius so you know how precise the fix is.
When your device exposes them, it also reports altitude, altitude accuracy, heading and speed, which is useful when testing GPS hardware, debugging a mapping feature or simply satisfying curiosity about what a website can see.
A convenient map link opens your coordinates in OpenStreetMap so you can confirm the spot visually.
Crucially, this tool is a viewer and nothing more: your coordinates are requested locally by your own browser and are never transmitted, logged or stored by the page.
The browser always asks for permission first, and you can revoke it at any time in your site settings.
It works on phones and laptops alike, making it a quick way to check that location services are functioning and to grab precise coordinates to paste elsewhere.
FAQ
Is my location sent anywhere?
No. The coordinates are requested locally by your own browser and displayed on the page only; this tool never uploads, logs or stores them.
Why is my accuracy low or altitude missing?
Accuracy and the optional altitude, heading and speed fields depend on your device hardware. Laptops using Wi-Fi positioning are less precise than phones with GPS, and some fields may be unavailable.
