Current Location – Google Maps – Link to Directions

For those still looking, here are some methods of linking to Google Maps:

Spaces can be changed to + or encoded as %20.

  • Linking to a location (No directions)

    https://www.google.com/maps?q=760+West+Genesee+Street+Syracuse+NY+13204
    
  • No starting point (User input required to generate directions).

    https://www.google.com/maps?daddr=760+West+Genesee+Street+Syracuse+NY+13204
    
  • With a set location as starting point (Automatically generates directions with no user input required).

    https://www.google.com/maps?saddr=760+West+Genesee+Street+Syracuse+NY+13204&daddr=314+Avery+Avenue+Syracuse+NY+13204
    
  • With “My Location” as starting point (Automatically generates directions with no user input required).

    https://www.google.com/maps?saddr=My+Location&daddr=760+West+Genesee+Street+Syracuse+NY+13204
    
  • Current Location to Latitude and Longitude

    https://www.google.com/maps?saddr=My+Location&daddr=43.12345,-76.12345
    
  • Query search of a Latitude and Longitude. Also shows setting a default zoom level.

    https://www.google.com/maps?ll=43.12345,-76.12345&q=food&z=14
    
  • String search as destination

    https://www.google.com/maps?saddr=My+Location&daddr=Pinckney+Hugo+Group
    

Here is a post I made that I will keep updated as there are some even newer ways to do this!
