What is a “place”, exactly?
A place is anywhere you can point to on Earth — a city, a street address, a landmark, a mountain, or a single park bench. Behind every place is a precise pair of numbers: its latitude and longitude. Places turns the names people use into those coordinates (and back again), so you can search “Eiffel Tower” and instantly get 48.858370, 2.294481, an address, a map, the local time and the elevation — without installing anything.
Address vs coordinates — what’s the difference?
An address (“20 W 34th St, New York”) is how people describe a place; coordinates (“40.748440, -73.985664”) are how machines and maps describe the exact same spot. Addresses are easy to read but ambiguous and don’t exist everywhere; coordinates are precise to a few metres and work anywhere on Earth — over oceans, in deserts, on trails. Converting between the two is the heart of what Places does, and it’s why the same point can power a delivery, a meeting pin, or a search.
How to find a place
- Search by name or address. Type a landmark, street address, city or country in the box above and press Search.
- Read the result. You’ll get the full address, exact latitude and longitude, and a map pin you can copy or open in Google Maps.
- Go further. Jump to distance between cities, the local time, a postal code, or the elevation — the place you found flows straight into the next tool.
