Very interesting solution. It does work.

I use a similar approach to confirm locations using Google Maps. However, I just use a formula field with the following formula:

```auto
"http://maps.google.com/maps?t=k&q=loc:" + ToText(Location.Latitude()) + "+" + ToText(Location.Longitude())

```

Assuming `Location` is the name of the Location Field. If you set the formula field type to URL, then it will give you a hyperlink to Google Maps.

This might help you to avoid having to run a separate action 🙂
