Is there a way to embed a latitude longitude coordinate pair within a url link to search for a location on either OpenStreetMap, Google and/or Bing Maps? I'd like to use the url link within Excel, LibreOffice and within an html pages. I have tables with coordinates that I'd like to configure with a link to show its location on a map, without building an online mapping application.
If not, then is there a simple javascript that I can encapsulate the coordinate within and fetch that from OpenStreetMap, Google and/or Bing Maps?
It seems like the url would be something like the following, but I can't get this to work:
