Go to Settings > Privacy > Location Services and make sure that Location Services is on and that Maps is set to While Using the App or Widgets.
Make sure that you set the date, time, and time zone correctly on your device. Go to Settings > General > Date & Time. If possible, use Set Automatically.
Make sure that cellular data or Wi-Fi is turned on, and that you have an active connection.
Restart the Maps app. Swipe up on the app and pause, then swipe up again on the app preview to close it. Then open Maps again.
Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Try a different location or switch to a different Wi-Fi network.
