If you want the app open InAppBrowser:

var url = 'http://www.google.com/maps/place/' + latitude ',' + longtitude;
var inAppBrowser = window.open(url, '_blank', 'location=yes');

If you want open native Google Map app:

window.location = 'comgooglemaps://?center=40.765819,-73.975866&zoom=14&views=traffic'

If you want open a Map app default on user phone:

window.location = 'geo:40.765819,-73.975866'

You can find more detail in there: Android Phonegap - How to Open Native Google Maps Application

And can find more url scheme of Google Map here: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/ios-sdk/urlscheme#display_directions

  • tell me about the default one ?? @SLyHuy – Shamil Mar 25 '16 at 14:57
  • Some user don't like google map, they install another map app, like browser. We call it default map app. – SLyHuy Apr 01 '16 at 10:00

I think you can do it with an specific intent like this:

        String uri = String.format(Locale.ENGLISH, "geo:%f,%f", latitude,   longitude);
         Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(uri));
        context.startActivity(intent);
