DataspryvaGoogle Maps Timezone & Local Time Lookup
Resolve the IANA timezone, current local time, UTC offset, and daylight-saving information for any coordinate. Accepts single or batch lat/lng inputs.
Input schema
Input fields, types, required flags, descriptions, defaults, and prefills come from the published definition. Prefill examples are distinct from defaults.
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
mode | string | optional | Coordinates resolves latitude/longitude pairs. Place looks up an address, landmark or business name. Place ID resolves a Google Place ID or Maps URL. Mixed processes every filled list in one run. |
location | object | optional | One coordinate as {"lat": 40.7128, "lng": -74.006}. Decimal degrees, WGS84. |
locations | array | optional | A list of coordinates, each {"lat": 40.7128, "lng": -74.006}. |

address | string | optional | One address, landmark, business name or postcode. Example: Eiffel Tower, Paris. |
addresses | array | optional | One address, landmark, business name or postcode per line. |
placeId | string | optional | One Google Place ID (starts with ChIJ) or a full Google Maps place URL. |
placeIds | array | optional | One Google Place ID or Google Maps place URL per line. |
language | string | optional | Language Google Maps uses for returned place names, addresses and country names. It does not translate the query itself. |
country | string | optional | Optional ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code. The country name is added to place and address queries so an ambiguous search resolves in that country first. Leave empty for no bias. Coordinates are unaffected. |

Google Maps Timezone & Local Time Lookup
Find the IANA timezone and the current local time for any Google Maps place, address, Place ID or latitude/longitude pair. Submit one item or a batch and get a clean record per match: timezone name, local wall-clock time, UTC time, current UTC offset, weekday, Unix timestamp and daylight-saving detail, plus the matched place and a Google Maps link.
No Google API key, browser, login or cookie is required.
What you can look up
| Mode | What you provide | What Google Maps resolves |
|---|---|---|
| Coordinates | One {lat, lng} pair or a batch of pairs |
The nearest address or named place at that point and its timezone |
| Place or address | An address, landmark, business name or postcode | The best matching place, its address, coordinates and timezone |
| Place ID | A Google Place ID (starts with ChIJ) or a full Google Maps place URL |
The exact place and its timezone |
| Mixed batch | Any combination of the three lists | Every filled list in one run |
When mode is omitted, every filled list is processed, so old coordinate-only tasks keep working unchanged.
Inputs
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
mode |
select | – | coordinates, place, placeId or mixed |
location |
object | – | One coordinate: {"lat": 40.7128, "lng": -74.006} |
locations |
array | – | A batch of {lat, lng} coordinates |
address |
string | – | One address, landmark, business name or postcode |
addresses |
array | – | A batch of addresses or place names |
placeId |
string | – | One Google Place ID or Maps place URL |
placeIds |
array | – | A batch of Place IDs or Maps URLs |
language |
select | en |
Language for returned place names and addresses (35 options) |
country |
select | – | Optional country bias for ambiguous place/address searches |
Latitude must be within [-90, 90] and longitude within [-180, 180]. The keys latitude/longitude/lon are accepted as synonyms for lat/lng. Duplicate coordinates, addresses and Place IDs are removed before lookup; blank values are skipped and invalid coordinates or Place IDs are reported in the run status.
Daily prefill
The default run resolves one New York coordinate and returns one record, which keeps the daily platform test cheap.

Use cases
- Normalise business hours — convert local opening hours from a places dataset into UTC ranges
- Schedule across regions — send notifications only during local business hours
- Enrich geocoded data — attach a timezone and current local time to addresses or coordinates
- Travel and logistics — check the local time and DST state at a destination before planning a call or delivery
- Audit and compliance — stamp events with the correct local time and DST flag for the location where they happened
FAQ
Does this need a Google Maps API key? No. It reads Google Maps' public place and timezone information, so there is no key, login or cookie to configure.
Why is the timezone sometimes a different city from the coordinate? Google Maps resolves the nearest place that belongs to a timezone. Near a border the nearest address can sit on the other side, and Google's own boundary data decides the zone. The actor reports Google's answer and does not infer a zone from longitude.
Why do some coordinates return no record? Points in the open ocean or in unclaimed areas may not resolve to a place with a timezone. Those inputs are named in the run status instead of receiving a guessed zone.
How is the local time calculated? Google Maps supplies the IANA timezone identifier. The current local time, offset and daylight-saving state are then calculated from the bundled IANA timezone database at lookup time.
Are fractional offsets supported?
Yes. Nepal (+05:45), Chatham Islands (+12:45), Newfoundland (-03:30) and other fractional zones are preserved exactly.
Does DST work in both hemispheres?
Yes. Southern-hemisphere zones such as Australia/Sydney and Pacific/Chatham report DST correctly, including their opposite-season transition dates.
Can I resolve a large batch? Yes. Lists accept many items and are processed concurrently. For very large batches, start with a small sample to confirm the output shape fits your pipeline.
Does this return the country or address of a coordinate? Yes, when Google Maps resolves one. The matched place name, formatted address, coordinates and country code are included alongside the timezone fields.
Is this affiliated with Google? No. This actor is not affiliated with or endorsed by Google.
Limits
- A timezone requires a resolved place. Open-ocean and unmapped coordinates can return no timezone.
- Timezone boundaries follow Google Maps' own place data; this actor does not maintain a separate boundary map.
- Google Maps place names and addresses follow the selected
language, while the timezone identifier is always IANA English.
Python quickstart
Use a schema-derived input and the Python standard library to start a run. An Apify account and token are required for execution.
