How can I create Google Maps links based on coordinates. Their new basic share urls contain a lot of parameters, for example -
https://www.google.com/maps/place/Vetlanda,+Sweden/@57.4217311,15.0849255,13z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x465758d912d321b5:0x55675191e550be84?hl=en
Any ideas? Not looking to embed but just to create external links that can be shared.

Go to maps.google.com on the web. Type your organization's address into the search box, and then hit [Enter]. Google Maps will display a pin on a map indicating the location. Select the sprocket in the lower right corner, then choose Share or embed map (Figure A).
The first latitude/longitude will be used for the pin location and label. It can be in degrees-minutes-seconds, degrees-minutes, or degrees. The second latitude/longitude (following the "@") is the map center. It must be in degrees only in order for the zoom (12z) to be recognized.
Once you’re signed in, press the hamburger menu icon in the top-left. In the options menu, click the “Your Places” option. In the “Your Places” menu that appears on the left, click the “Maps” tab. At the bottom of the menu, select the “Create Map” button. The map creation window will appear in a new tab.
Just make sure your data contains separate latitude and longitude columns and it will map instantly. The coordinate pairs may be positive or negative, depending on the hemisphere of the coordinates. Typically latitude is listed first and longitude second.
Click the link with latitude and longitude, you will get the map with the location marked: You can copy the link after verifying the map. Try this (it will definitely work with a pointer to your location on map): To add a marker to a map, you can use the My Maps feature of Google Maps.
Here we have used the reference from an array but you can simply use the cell reference. When you click on the link, this will immediately open the correct location in your browser Nowadays, collecting GPS coordinates becomes easier with mobile devices. And, you can convert your addresses to GPS coordinates using a Google API.
Why not http://www.google.com/maps/place/lat,lng I think this is the simplest way
