Hello,

I sometimes need to zoom into a location through its GPS coordinates.

I suggest adding this feature in the Find field in OT.

Cheers,

Have you tried modifying the coordinates directly in the URL?
You can use the following template=
http://overpass-turbo.eu/?C={lat};{lon};{zoom}
Example=
Berlin
https://overpass-turbo.eu/?C=52.5091169;13.3937073;11

If you want to change the map view to another coordinate go to your browser's search window and set the new coordinates and zoom and use the refresh or search option.

Thanks or the tip. I'd be easier and more obvious for users, though, if they could just paste GPS coords into the interface.
