Convert Lat/Long to Plus Codes
Enter a decimal latitude and longitude to get the Plus Code (Open Location Code), or paste a code like 8FVC9G8F+6X to decode it. Plus Codes name every spot on Earth with one short code built from simple 20×20 subdivision, so they work where street addresses do not.
Enter coordinates above to see the Plus Code at three detail levels.
Plus Code is the standard 10-digit code (a cell about 14 m across). Precise adds an eleventh digit (about 3 m). Area stops at 8 digits (about 275 m).
How to use it
- Type the decimal latitude (for example 32.0853).
- Type the decimal longitude (for example 34.7818).
- Read the code at three detail levels; all rows update instantly as you type.
- Copy any row with its Copy button, or flip the toggle to decode a code instead.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert latitude and longitude to a Plus Code?
Enter the decimal latitude and longitude. The Plus Code appears immediately at the 10-digit, 11-digit, and 8-digit levels; no button press needed.
What about short codes like 9G8F+6X?
A short code drops its leading digits and leans on a nearby place for context. Paste it, then give an approximate reference latitude and longitude (the town it was shared with is close enough); the converter restores the full code.
Is this converter free?
Personal and non-commercial use is free; commercial use needs a paid license. No login, no upload; the conversion runs entirely in your browser.
How precise is a Plus Code?
The standard 10-digit code is a cell about 14 m across; an 11th digit takes it to roughly 3 m. Plus Codes name small areas, like a gate or a doorway; for meter-precision point references on a metric grid, use MGRS.
