Certainly! Hereโs a tutorial on how to display obtained geographical coordinates on a website using JavaScript and the Google Maps API:
Before you begin, youโll need to get a Google Maps API key to use Google Maps services. You can do this by registering your project on the Google Developer Console and creating an API key.
Create a new folder in your project and upload the following files:
index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Geolocation on Google Maps</title>
<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_API_KEY&callback=initMap"
async defer></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="map" style="height: 400px;"></div>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
script.js
// Initialize the map
function initMap() {
// Obtained coordinates
var latitude = 42.36; // Example: Enter your latitude coordinates
var longitude = -71.05; // Example: Enter your longitude coordinates
// Create a map object
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
center: {lat: latitude, lng: longitude},
zoom: 12 // Initial map zoom level
});
// Add a marker with the obtained coordinates
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: {lat: latitude, lng: longitude},
map: map,
title: 'Coordinates Here!'
});
}
When you run your HTML file in a browser, you should see a Google Maps map with a marker indicating the specified coordinates.
Thatโs how you can use JavaScript and the Google Maps API to display obtained geographical coordinates on your website. Keep in mind that this example is very basic, and you can expand it by adding more functionality and styling to your website.
