Find the Coordinates for a Location

Finding the latitude and longitude coordinates of a particular location is not as easy as it should be. You can get it from Google Maps, but it requires 3 or 4 clicks. There are also a bunch of sites devoted to the task - most with ads and invasive spyware slowing down the page.

We need something better - that's why I created Latitude Longitude Locate. Latitude Longitude Locate is a simple mapping app designed for geo developers. Click on a location where you want to get the coordinates, and click the "copy" icon. Those coordinates are now on your clipboard - two clicks.

There are also a few more features, like the ability to swap the order of latitude/longitude.

It's meant to be simple and quick. I hope it helps you out. Let me know if you have any ideas or suggestions to make it even better.
