## Description

GPS Coordinates for Google Maps is a handy Chrome extension that adds a button to Google Maps for instantly fetching GPS coordinates in various formats such as decimal degrees (DD), degrees and decimal minutes (DM), degrees minutes seconds (DMS), Plus Codes, and Military Grid Reference System (MGRS). Clicking the button copies these coordinates for any selected location or the map center if no selection is made.

The extension also generates QR codes for each coordinate format, allowing easy sharing to smartphones and tablets. Additionally, users can right-click on selected text anywhere and directly search it in Google Maps, simplifying location queries. This tool integrates smoothly with other map apps like Maps.me and utilities like Pushbullet for enhanced location sharing and navigation tasks.
