How would I be able to open google maps when I press a button in my app?

Question

I have this app and I want to use google maps or apple maps to open when the user presses a button in my app. How would I be able to do this? Is there like a link to the map

At button click (in action) call function "directions()" with following code :

func directions() {
    // if GoogleMap installed
    if (UIApplication.shared.canOpenURL(URL(string:"comgooglemaps://")!)) {
        UIApplication.shared.openURL(NSURL(string:
            "comgooglemaps://?saddr=&daddr=\(Float(event.addressLat)!),\(Float(event.addressLong)!)&directionsmode=driving")! as URL)

    } else {
        // if GoogleMap App is not installed
        UIApplication.shared.openURL(NSURL(string:
            "https://maps.google.com/?q=@\(Float(event.addressLat)!),\(Float(event.addressLong)!)")! as URL)
    }
}

Edit your info.plist for LSApplicationQueriesSchemes :
