Tools Coordinates

Coordinates to Address

Any coordinate format in, a full address out. The tool also reports the elevation and local time zone at that point.

How to use it

  1. Paste the coordinate in any format: "40.7128, -74.0060", DMS, degrees and decimal minutes, or a Google Maps link.
  2. Press Look up. The nearest address, the elevation and the time zone appear, with the point pinned on the map.
  3. Click anywhere on the map to look up a different point.
  4. For a list, switch to Batch and paste up to 25 coordinates, one per line. Expect about one result per second.

How it works

The address comes from Nominatim, the OpenStreetMap reverse geocoder, which returns the nearest mapped feature to the point. Elevation is read from the Open-Meteo elevation API (Copernicus GLO-90 terrain model, 90 m cells). The time zone is resolved in the browser from a compact time zone boundary table, so it needs no request.

Nominatim allows one request per second, so batch lookups are queued and run at that pace. "Nearest address" is literal: a point in a field returns the nearest road or farm, and a point at sea returns nothing.

Questions

Which coordinate formats are accepted?
Decimal degrees with or without hemisphere letters, degrees-minutes-seconds with symbols or spaces, degrees and decimal minutes, and Google Maps URLs containing @lat,lng or q=lat,lng. Latitude comes first.
Why does the address not match my house number?
The reverse geocoder returns the closest feature OpenStreetMap knows about. Where house numbers are not mapped you get the street, and where the street is not mapped you get the town.
Is the elevation above sea level?
Yes, in metres and feet above mean sea level from the GLO-90 terrain model. It is ground elevation, not the height of a building, and can be off by several metres on steep slopes.
