Hi, I finally had time to make this work !
I use the location instead of the project basepoint coordinates and here is the working code :

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

import Autodesk
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import UnitUtils
import webbrowser
from pyrevit import forms

doc         = __revit__.ActiveUIDocument.Document
app         = __revit__.Application
rvt_year    = int(app.VersionNumber)

#-Get location and placeName infos-

currentLocation = doc.ActiveProjectLocation.GetSiteLocation()
impLat = currentLocation.Latitude
impLong = currentLocation.Longitude

placeName = currentLocation.PlaceName

#-Convert formula following revit version-

def convert_to_Degrees(value):
    if rvt_year >= 2021:
        from Autodesk.Revit.DB import UnitTypeId
        return UnitUtils.ConvertFromInternalUnits(value, UnitTypeId.Degrees)
    else :
        from Autodesk.Revit.DB import DisplayUnitType
        return UnitUtils.ConvertFromInternalUnits(value, DisplayUnitType.DUT_DECIMAL_DEGREES)

#-get Metric Lat/Long from Imperial Lat/Long-

metLat     = convert_to_Degrees(impLat)
metLong    = convert_to_Degrees(impLong)

#-Check if Longitude Value is default Revit value-

if str(metLong) == "-71.2580718994" :
    msg         = "L'emplacement de ce projet ne semble pas avoir été correctement défini ..."
    sub_msg     = "Cliquez sur Gérer > Emplacement pour résoudre ce problème en indiquant l'adresse exacte du projet "
    forms.alert(msg, sub_msg, warn_icon=True)

#-if not, use the corrected value to make an alert form for the user-

else :    
    msg = "Allons voir ce qui se passe " + placeName
    expanded = "Latitude : "+ str(metLat) + " & Longitude : " + str(metLong)
    res = forms.alert(msg, expanded , cancel=True, warn_icon=False)
    
    #-if user click on OK, open the webbrowser with the generated url with Metric Lat/Long -
    
    if res :
        url = "https://earth.google.com/web/@" + str(metLat) + "," + str(metLong) + ",5000d" 
        webbrowser.open(url)
