Not an address that has to be looked up — a pair of coordinates that opens directly on a map. Specimen · Level M Live — scan it and a pin drops in central Copenhagen. ## What happens when someone scans it The map app opens with a pin on the exact spot. No address parsing, no “did you mean” — coordinates are unambiguous. ## What the code actually contains ``` geo:55.6761,12.5683 ``` A geo: URI — latitude and longitude in decimal degrees, and nothing else. ## How to make one 1. Get the coordinates: long-press the spot in any map app and copy what it shows. 2. Paste latitude and longitude into the fields. 3. Style it and check the preflight panel. 4. Scan once and confirm the pin lands where you meant. ## Fields - `lat` Latitude, decimal degrees - `lng` Longitude, decimal degrees ## Coordinates beat addresses Market stalls, trailheads, festival gates, a door in a courtyard — the places people actually need finding rarely have a clean street address. Coordinates skip the guessing. ## Four decimals is eleven metres Four decimal places locate to about 11 m, five to about a metre. Copying from a map app gives you plenty; do not trim the digits. ## Questions ### Which map opens? The phone’s default handler — Apple Maps on iPhone, Google Maps on most Androids. The geo: format is neutral between them. ### Can it start navigation? It drops the pin; the person taps directions. That is one tap, and it leaves the choice of walking or driving to them. ### Can I use an address instead? Encode a maps URL as a URL code if you must, but coordinates are shorter, service-neutral and never mis-geocoded.
