How to add a link to a map marker which will open up the same map in Google Maps itself (for a larger map) and still display a marker in the same location?
Solution:
Output the Types address field as part of a google URL in a format like so:

Where would you expect the users to see a larger map?
You could create a new View to show a larger map.
Say your first map is displaying "location" posts on a map.
Then your second View would need to also display locations on a map (where the settings are to display a larger map), but you would need to add a Query Filter to only show the location set by a URL parameter (e.g. 'locationid'). You would insert this View onto a page (e.g. "detailed map", which has a post ID of 123).
Then in your first map for the marker pop-up you would create a link to the detailed map page, adding a URL parameter for the locationid, something like
Thanks for your reply Nigel. Sorry for confusion, I just want the link to open that location on google maps (maps.google.com) where they can have other options like direction etc....

You need to output the Google link with the lat and lon in a particular format, and you can use the format attribute in the types shortcode that outputs the address to achieve the required format.
So I added the following to my template for locations which use a "street-address" custom field:
<a href='<em><u>lien caché</u></em> field='street-address' format="@FIELD_LATITUDE,FIELD_LONGITUDE,15z"][/types]'>View on Google</a>
It didnt work but I guess I need to explore a bit more on google api side, I was thinking there must be something in toolset plugin to do it which is why I opened the ticket.
