You have to use geolocation API in JavaScript. Using that you can get users longitude and latitude. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Geolocation_API https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/map-geolocation

If you use geolocation api you must have a secure origin. I have tried but it throw this error. https://code.sololearn.com/WeLcqUnkYx4R/?ref=app
