HTML Geolocation is used to get the geographical position of a user. Due to privacy concerns, this position requires user approval. Geo-location in HTML5 is used to share the location with some websites and be aware of the exact location. It is mainly used for local businesses, and restaurants, or showing locations on the map. It uses JavaScript to give latitude and longitude to the backend server.

Syntax

let loc = navigator.geolocation
