How to get coordinates from Google Maps share url on Android












0















I'm trying to decode this url: https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x4745bd4af4e60a51:0xd62aba005d92953d?utm_source=mstt_1LM_pY9N8KOrk5pGERKQRIPXvuU12TY



I am guessing that "0x4745bd4af4e60a51:0xd62aba005d92953d" is the part storing the coordinates but I am not sure how to decode it. I tried to convert it from hex to decimal but it doesn't give me a coordinate value.

          The Coordinates are listed in UTM and not Lat/Long. There are convertors online that will help with this conversion. When you click on the link you will see the following URL:
          https://www.google.com/maps/place/Westfield/@46.225795,21.2673783,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x4745bd4af4e60a51:0xd62aba005d92953d!8m2!3d46.225795!4d21.269567.



          The coordinates are listed as : 46.225795,21.2673783

          You have a couple of options, 1) Download Google Earth and enter the coordinates in the search box. From the tag you can retrieve the lat/long
          2) Open Google maps and type those coordinates in and you will see the Lat/Long listed below that search box.
