A lightning-input-location component represents a geolocation compound field that accepts user input for a latitude and longitude value. Latitude and longitude are geographic coordinates specified in decimal degrees. The geolocation compound field allows you to identify locations by their latitude and longitude. The latitude field accepts values within -90 and 90, and the longitude field accepts values within -180 and 180. An error message is displayed when you enter a value outside of the accepted range.

Here are a few examples of latitudes: -30, 45, 37.12345678, -10.0. Values such as 90.5 or -90.5 are not valid latitudes.

Here are a few examples of longitudes: -100, -120.9762, 115.84. Values such as 180.5 or -180.5 are not valid longitudes.

This example displays a geolocation compound field with a latitude of 37.7938460 and a longitude of -122.3948370.

Client-side input validation is available for this component. You can require the user to make a selection by including the required attribute. An error message is automatically displayed when a user interacts with the field but leaves it empty.

To check the validity states of an input, use the validity attribute, which is based on the ValidityState object. You can access the validity states in your JavaScript. This validity attribute returns an object with boolean properties. For more information, see the lightning-input documentation.
