LatLng class

google.maps.LatLng class

A LatLng is a point in geographical coordinates: latitude and longitude.

Although the default map projection associates longitude with the x-coordinate of the map, and latitude with the y-coordinate, the latitude coordinate is always written

first

, followed by the longitude.

Notice that you cannot modify the coordinates of a

LatLng

. If you want to compute another point, you have to create a new one.

Most methods that accept LatLng objects also accept a LatLngLiteral object, so that the following are equivalent:

 map.setCenter(new google.maps.LatLng(-34, 151));
map.setCenter({lat: -34, lng: 151});

The constructor also accepts LatLngLiteral and LatLng objects. If a LatLng instance is passed to the constructor, a copy is created.

The possible calls to the constructor are below:

 new google.maps.LatLng(-34, 151);
new google.maps.LatLng(-34, 151, true);
new google.maps.LatLng({lat: -34, lng: 151});
new google.maps.LatLng({lat: -34, lng: 151}, true);
new google.maps.LatLng(new google.maps.LatLng(-34, 151));
new google.maps.LatLng(new google.maps.LatLng(-34, 151), true);

Access by calling const {LatLng} = await google.maps.importLibrary("core").
See Libraries in the Maps JavaScript API.

Constructor LatLng

LatLng(latOrLatLngOrLatLngLiteral[, lngOrNoClampNoWrap, noClampNoWrap])

Parameters: 

Creates a LatLng object representing a geographic point. Latitude is specified in degrees within the range [-90, 90]. Longitude is specified in degrees within the range [-180, 180). Set noClampNoWrap to true to enable values outside of this range. Note the ordering of latitude and longitude.

Methods equals

equals(other)

Parameters: 

Return Value:  boolean

Comparison function.

lat

lat()

Parameters:  None

Return Value:  number

Returns the latitude in degrees.

lng

lng()

Parameters:  None

Return Value:  number

Returns the longitude in degrees.

toJSON

toJSON()

Parameters:  None

Return Value:  LatLngLiteral

Converts to JSON representation. This function is intended to be used via JSON.stringify.

toString

toString()

Parameters:  None

Return Value:  string

Converts to string representation.

toUrlValue

toUrlValue([precision])

Parameters: 

Return Value:  string

Returns a string of the form "lat,lng" for this LatLng. We round the lat/lng values to 6 decimal places by default.

LatLngLiteral interface

google.maps.LatLngLiteral interface

Object literals are accepted in place of LatLng objects, as a convenience, in many places. These are converted to LatLng objects when the Maps API encounters them.

Examples:

 map.setCenter({lat: -34, lng: 151});
new google.maps.Marker({position: {lat: -34, lng: 151}, map: map});

LatLng object literals are not supported in the Geometry library.

Properties lat

Type:  number

Latitude in degrees. Values will be clamped to the range [-90, 90]. This means that if the value specified is less than -90, it will be set to -90. And if the value is greater than 90, it will be set to 90.

lng

Type:  number

Longitude in degrees. Values outside the range [-180, 180] will be wrapped so that they fall within the range. For example, a value of -190 will be converted to 170. A value of 190 will be converted to -170. This reflects the fact that longitudes wrap around the globe.

LatLngBounds class

Properties east

Type:  number

north

Type:  number

North latitude in degrees. Values will be clamped to the range [-90, 90]. This means that if the value specified is less than -90, it will be set to -90. And if the value is greater than 90, it will be set to 90.

south

Type:  number

South latitude in degrees. Values will be clamped to the range [-90, 90]. This means that if the value specified is less than -90, it will be set to -90. And if the value is greater than 90, it will be set to 90.

west

Type:  number

West longitude in degrees. Values outside the range [-180, 180] will be wrapped to the range [-180, 180). For example, a value of -190 will be converted to 170. A value of 190 will be converted to -170. This reflects the fact that longitudes wrap around the globe.
