Using the result

What does this point tell you?

Coordinates identify the selected geographic point. A search result may refer to the centre of a city, a street or an address; check the map before using it for a journey.

Elevation estimates the height of the underlying terrain above sea level. It can differ from a device reading and does not describe a bridge, building floor or the full ascent along a route.
