Gps Icon
gps · Map Location · 6 styles
Filed under Map Location, the Gps icon is part of the Solar Icons Angular package. It is one of 37 glyphs in that category and one of 1,246 icons in the library overall, each drawn on the same 24x24 grid so Gps lines up optically with everything around it. The icon is addressed in templates by the string "gps", and every style variant resolves from that single name.
Users read the shape as the idea of maps, pins, routes and geolocation. That places Gps in the Map Location family, which covers maps, pins, routes and geolocation and turns up in address pickers, delivery tracking, store locators and trip summaries. Teams building logistics, travel and local-commerce products reach for this set first. Use Gps where the label alone would be ambiguous — an icon-only button, a dense table row, a mobile tab bar — and keep an accessible name on the control, because the SVG itself is decorative.
Gps in 6 styles
Gps is drawn in 6 style variants: Bold, Bold Duotone, Linear, Outline, Broken and Line Duotone. Bold gives you solid filled shapes that hold their weight at 16px and read clearly against coloured backgrounds. Bold Duotone gives you a filled body with a second, lower-opacity layer that adds depth without a second colour token. Linear gives you even 1.5px strokes, the neutral default for dense interfaces and toolbars. A common pairing is Bold for the selected state and Line Duotone for the rest, so the active item reads without a colour change.

Nothing is registered globally by default, so the import list is the bundle. Import GPSBold from the "@rchernando/solar-icons/map-location" entry point, hand it to provideSolarIcons in your application config or in a route-level providers array, and render it with the solar-icon component. All 6 exports for gps live in that same entry point, so switching style is a one-line change.

Icons drawn alongside it in Map Location include Globus, Global, Compass Square, Compass Big, Compass, Branching Paths Up, Branching Paths Down and Streets Navigation. They share stroke weight and corner radius with Gps, so mixing them in one toolbar stays consistent.
Elsewhere in the library
Across the rest of the set, Bookmark Opened, Play, Buildings, Posts Carousel Horizontal, Calendar Search and Qrcode cover neighbouring ideas; the name "gps" is 3 characters long and splits into 1 token, which is how the explorer's search matches it.
Gps icon FAQ
- How do I use the gps icon in Angular?
- Import GPSBold from "@rchernando/solar-icons/map-location", register it with provideSolarIcons(GPSBold) and render <solar-icon name="gps" iconStyle="bold" />. No HTTP request is made — the SVG is inlined at build time.
- Which styles does Gps support?
- 6 of them: Bold, Bold Duotone, Linear, Outline, Broken and Line Duotone. Each is a separate export, so you only ship the ones you import.
- Can I change the size and colour of gps?
- Yes. The size input accepts any CSS length and the SVG uses currentColor, so Gps inherits the text colour of its container — a Tailwind class such as text-violet-400 is enough.
