Center the screen on your location by double-clicking on it, then use the View in Google Maps button at the top (Google Earth 4.1 and newer). This will open Google Maps within Google Earth. You can see the center coordinates in decimal format in the address bar, but unfortunately you cannot copy them directly.
Name used in the default map caption; image = U.S. - Los Angeles Metropolitan Area location map.svg The default map image, without "Image:" or "File:" top = 34.86 Latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees; bottom = 33.28 Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees; left = -119.1 Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees ...
The appropriate decimal places are used, [1] negative values are given using a hyphen-minus character. [2] The designation of a location as, for example [54.1855,-2.9857] means that it is potentially computer searchable and that it can be located by a generally (open) referencing system such as Google Earth or OpenStreetMap.

[nb 2] For instance rounding 9.46 to one decimal gives 9.5, and then 10 when rounding to integer using rounding half to even, but would give 9 when rounded to integer directly. Borman and Chatfield [15] discuss the implications of double rounding when comparing data rounded to one decimal place to specification limits expressed using integers.
The formulas involved can be complex and in some cases, such as in the ECEF to geodetic conversion above, the conversion has no closed-form solution and approximate methods must be used. References such as the DMA Technical Manual 8358.1 [15] and the USGS paper Map Projections: A Working Manual [16] contain formulas for conversion of map ...
The standard style for OpenStreetMap, like most Web maps, uses the Web Mercator projection. Web Mercator, Google Web Mercator, Spherical Mercator, WGS 84 Web Mercator [1] or WGS 84/Pseudo-Mercator is a variant of the Mercator map projection and is the de facto standard for Web mapping applications. It rose to prominence when Google Maps adopted ...
Google Maps' location tracking is regarded by some as a threat to users' privacy, with Dylan Tweney of VentureBeat writing in August 2014 that "Google is probably logging your location, step by step, via Google Maps", and linked users to Google's location history map, which "lets you see the path you've traced for any given day that your ...
