What gets extracted
Latitude & longitude

Place ID
Hex and ChIJ place IDs embedded in Maps URLs.
No network requests
Decoding uses URL pattern matching only — your link stays private.
Frequently asked questions
Why does my URL have no coordinates?
Short goo.gl/maps links and some place-only URLs do not embed coordinates. Open the full URL in a browser first, or use Maps List Export to scan the place directly.
Does this resolve short links?
No. Short links must be expanded in a browser first. We only parse the URL string you paste.
