Using Outscraper and extracting data is very easy. It is much faster than collecting data manually. It saves time. Let’s look at ways to manually and automatically collect longitude and latitude data from Google Maps.
Collecting Longitude and Latitude Data on Google Maps Manually
Google Maps does not directly show the location’s longitude and latitude information on the home screen. But it can be seen in the right-click menu.
Clicking on the “Longitude and Latitude” line will copy this data to the clipboard. The data “40.7432294426243494, -73.98741247232803” is expressed in a text like this.
So what should you do if you want to find the coordinates of multiple places, for example, all museums in New York? Or from the Google Maps URL list of your locations?
For each location, “hover over the location pin, right-click, copy and paste” steps take a lot of time. Outscraper offers a solution to this issue with its Google Maps scraping service. Outscraper Google Maps Data Scraper service can extract the longitude and latitude data from both categories and URLs in bulk.
How to Extract Longitude and Latitude From Google Maps in Bulk?
There are two ways to extract longitude and latitude with Outscraper’s Google Maps Data Scraper service cumulatively. The first is to create a scraping task by specifying a location and category. The second is to create a task using location URLs.
When creating a scraping task, selecting the location and category is enough. If you need to create more complex tasks, it is recommended that you look at this article: “Getting Started With Google Maps Scraping.”
The service will find all the museums in New York and list the coordinates of these museums one by one. It will extract both coordinates and all other data.
The data of all museums are sorted and listed in the result file. Each place and its data are listed one below the other. The result file can be in CSV/XLSX/JSON/Parquet format. And it can be opened with a spreadsheet viewer like Google Sheets.
“Plain queries” mode must be activated to extract coordinates with Google Maps links. In this mode, a category and location do not have to be selected. It is sufficient to just copy and paste the Google Maps links of the places.
Results will be listed in the same way. It is possible to extract coordinates collectively in both ways. Whichever way is suitable for the intended use is preferred. You can try these two ways by signing up for Outscraper now.
