Google Maps hyperlink inside a Web Map Popup

AlfonsoDodero

Hi,
I would like to insert an hyperlink to Google Maps within a popup of my Web Map.

In my process, latitude and longitude natively have the following notification type,

example
lon .: 11,213238
lat .: 44,231233

To easily insert them into the hyperlink I would need to convert them by transforming the comma into a period, as required by Google Maps.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi @AlfonsoDodero ,

 

A couple of years ago I published a document on GeoNet that shows how to create a hyperlink that opens a new tab with Street View at the location of the feature (Spanish):

https://community.esri.com/t5/comunidad-esri-colombia-ecuador/crear-un-enlace-a-streetview-en-la-ventana-emergente-con-arcade/ta-p/904929  

You mention that the coordinates are stored in a field with a decimal value (I assume that the field is numeric and not text). The comma as a decimal is a way of showing the numeric value but internally it will be stored as a point. When you access the value with Arcade I assume that the value will be retrieved with a decimal point or to be sure you can use a Replace to replace any decimal comma by a point.

Some examples:

// Streetview
var lat = Replace(Text($feature["Latitude Field Name"], "#.#######"), ",", ".");
var lon = Replace(Text($feature["Longitude Field Name"], "#.#######"), ",", ".");
var url = "http://maps.google.com/?cbll=" + lat + "," + lon + "&cbp=12,90,0,0,5&layer=c";
return url;

// Google maps search
var lat = Replace(Text($feature["Latitude Field Name"], "#.#######"), ",", ".");
var lon = Replace(Text($feature["Longitude Field Name"], "#.#######"), ",", ".");
var url = "https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=" + lat + "," + lon;
return url;

// Google maps @ location (zoom level 19)
var lat = Replace(Text($feature["Latitude Field Name"], "#.#######"), ",", ".");
var lon = Replace(Text($feature["Longitude Field Name"], "#.#######"), ",", ".");
var url = "https://www.google.com/maps/@" + lat + "," + lon + ",19z";
return url;
