Template:Sources-lat-long

There are a few web sites that provide useful lat/long information.


 * OpenStreetMap (OSM) – Browse the map, click with the right mouse button on the desired location and select "Show Address". The lat/long value of the location can then be copied from the text field in the upper left part of the website.
 * Nominatim – OSM reverse geocoding
 * If a destination has a geo tag, there will be a map icon at the top right of the article. If you know the area, then you can get co-ordinates for listings by going to that map (of any article), positioning the mouse pointer, then right-clicking to show lat and long info.
 * Wikipedia gives co-ordinates for most articles about places
 * Geomap – search via OSM Nominatim, provides coordinates in WV templates formats
 * Geobatcher is a tool which can take an entire section of Wikivoyage listings, and insert coordinates for up to 100 listings at a time. More instructions in article, How to use dynamic maps.
 * Multimap lets you search for cities in many countries and returns lat/long info (some problems with non ASCII chars in the names)
 * The Getty Thesaurus of Names has lat/long info for most cities in its database
 * The Global Gazetteer from Falling Rain Genomics, Inc. is another database that gives decimal geocode values for many place names around the world.
 * Richard Cyganiak's FOAF mapper – Find co-ordinates using Google Maps.
 * GeoNames - Quick and thorough geocoding
