Finding an Address on Google Earth
Finding an Address on Google Earth can be a bit tricky, but there are ways to do it.
If you don't have a street address or latitude and longitude coordinates, you can use Google Earth's screen pointing feature to find the location. You can point at the screen and ask "where is this?" to get started.
The LatLng Tool Tip is a useful feature that gives you the latitude and longitude of the center of the map. However, note that the accuracy of the location increases with the level of zoom.
You can use the latitude and longitude coordinates to do reverse-geocoding by opening up another browser tab and pasting in the API text. This works great for most countries, but may not be as accurate for very zoomed-in areas.

Using the Google Maps Geolocation API

The Google Maps Geolocation API is a powerful tool that can help you find a street address on Google Earth. This API can estimate the location of a device based on cell towers and WiFi nodes.
To use the Google Maps Geolocation API, you'll need to obtain a Google Cloud account and enable the Geolocation API. You can then use the API's URL to send a request with the device's location data.
The API will respond with a JSON object containing the estimated location, including the latitude, longitude, and accuracy radius.
Google Maps Geolocation API
Google Maps Geolocation API works by using a combination of data to pinpoint your exact location. This includes your IP address, GPS and Wi-Fi signals, and nearby cell towers.
On desktop, your IP address helps Google estimate your location. On mobile, Google uses GPS signals and nearby Wi-Fi networks to improve location accuracy.
Your IP address can help Google estimate your location on desktop, but it's not as accurate as using GPS and Wi-Fi signals on mobile.
Google considers three key factors when determining your location: relevance, prominence, and distance. Relevance refers to how closely a company fits the search phrase you entered, while prominence refers to the degree to which a firm is well-known or established.
