Generate and download a location QR code from latitude and longitude that opens the point in a map app when scanned
What each setting means and how to use it. Click to expand.
The north-south coordinate of the point, a number from -90 to 90. North is positive, south is negative. You can copy and paste it from a map app coordinate display or URL.
The east-west coordinate of the point, a number from -180 to 180. East is positive, west is negative. Combined with latitude it uniquely identifies a location.
A name for the map pin. When set, the QR string becomes geo:lat,lng?q=lat,lng(Label), which supporting map apps display as the pin name. When blank, it produces the simple geo:lat,lng form.
The error correction level is roughly how much damage can be recovered (L about 7%, M 15%, Q 25%, H 30%). Size is the side length in pixels of the output PNG, and margin is the white quiet zone (4 or more recommended). Use a larger size for print; SVG scales without limit.
A location QR code bundles latitude/longitude coordinates in the geo: format into a QR code. Scanning it on a phone opens the point in a supporting map app. You can print it to guide people to a store, event venue, or meeting spot.
The geo: format is supported by many map apps (notably Android and Google Maps), but some devices or apps may not support it. On unsupported environments the point may not open, so we recommend testing the scan before you post it.
