Answer 1

Using Swift 4 and Xcode 9

At the top:

import CoreLocation

Then:

let geocoder = CLGeocoder()

let locationString = "London"

geocoder.geocodeAddressString(locationString) { (placemarks, error) in
    if let error = error {
        print(error.localizedDescription)
    } else {
        if let location = placemarks?.first?.location {
            let query = "?ll=\(location.coordinate.latitude),\(location.coordinate.longitude)"
            let urlString = "http://maps.apple.com/".appending(query)
            if let url = URL(string: urlString) {
                UIApplication.shared.open(url, options: [:], completionHandler: nil)
            }
        }
    }
