I would use wp_localize_script https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_localize_script

You could also just echo the values into a script tag on the page, but localizing the script would be the preferred method for an external script.

<script>
  // echo a php value into a js variable on page
  var map_url = '<?php  the_field('map_url'); ?>';
</script>
