How do I find the latitude and longitude?

In Google Maps, right-click the exact spot and click the coordinates at the top of the menu to copy them. Paste them here — first number is latitude, second is longitude.

Which maps app opens when someone scans?

The code uses the standard geo: format, so each phone opens its own default — Apple Maps on iPhone, Google Maps on most Androids. The pin is identical either way.

Why use coordinates instead of an address?

Coordinates point at the exact spot — a trailhead, a parking entrance, a market stall — where a street address can be ambiguous or missing entirely. Six decimal places is about 10 cm of precision.

Does the code expire or track scans?

Neither. The coordinates are encoded directly in the code, generated in your browser, free forever with no signup. Nothing passes through UseQR when someone scans.
