Location API
The Geolocation API is a web API that provides access to the device’s location data, such as latitude and longitude. It allows web developers to build location-based applications, such as mapping and location sharing, by using the device’s GPS, Wi-Fi, and other sensors to determine the user’s location.
To use the Geolocation API, a web page must first request permission from the user to access their location. If permission is granted, the page can then use the navigator.geolocation
object to access the device’s location data. The API provides several methods for getting the user’s current location, watching for location changes, and calculating distances between two locations.
