How do latitude and longitude field on Salesforce account populate?
How do latitude and longitude field on Salesforce account populate? Do they automatically populate when I enter the account address or I have to use some third party or there is any other method available?

Hi Avnish,
It did not worked on geolocation.
But I think you need to populate geolocation fields through address fields.You can also check the following link for more information:

Hi,
They aren't populated automatically when the other address fields are populated. You would need to use a third party service to translate the street address into Geolocation coordinates.
The Google Map control will be doing location lookup for you based on the street address.
You could potentially use the Google Geocoding API to do the conversion and then set the BillingLatitude and BillingLongitude fields
Hope this helps.

The latitude and longitude field are not autopopulated you by using Geolocation. I think you need a 3rd party service like Google Map.
Thanks
