This random location generator produces coordinate pairs in decimal degrees — the format mapping APIs and databases use. Latitude runs from −90 to 90 (south to north of the equator) and longitude from −180 to 180 (west to east of the prime meridian), so every generated pair is a well-formed point that map and geocoding code will accept.
Developers use random coordinates to populate location fields in test data, drop sample markers on a map, and exercise distance and bounding-box logic without hand-picking points. Each pair is distinct, which makes them good for testing uniqueness and clustering.
Choose how many you need and press Generate — free, unlimited, and instant, with copy-one and copy-all. For coordinates attached to a full fictional address, use the random address generator.
Latitude & longitude format
| Component | Range | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Latitude | −90 to 90 | 40.71280 |
| Longitude | −180 to 180 | −74.00600 |
| Format | Decimal degrees (5 dp) | 40.71280, −74.00600 |
| Datum | WGS 84 (web/GPS standard) | — |
Coordinates are decimal degrees. The generator returns well-formed pairs within valid ranges for use as test data.
Frequently asked questions
What format are the coordinates in?+
Decimal degrees — latitude then longitude, the format used by Google Maps, GPS and most geocoding APIs. Latitude is −90 to 90, longitude −180 to 180.
Are the locations real places?+
The coordinates are well-formed points for use as test data. They are randomized, so a pair may land anywhere — on land or water — and points to no specific real address.
Can I generate many coordinate pairs at once?+
Yes. Pick a count (up to 50) and use Copy all to grab the whole batch.
Is the location generator free?+
Yes — free and unlimited, no sign-up.
