# ARGeoTrackingStatus

The state, accuracy, and reason that are possible for geo-tracking’s current condition.

## Declaration

```swift
class ARGeoTrackingStatus
```

## Overview

Overview Geo tracking requires coordination with the user at various phases of the geo-tracking lifecycle. To elicit the right user actions, an app needs to provide clear instructions to the user based on the current frame’s geoTrackingStatus: Geo-tracking state most notably regards the important process in which ARKit acquires a better understanding of the user’s geographic location and orientation than is possible with GPS and the compass heading alone. See ARGeoTrackingStatus.State.localizing for more information. Given a particular state, the app needs to tailor its user messaging according to the stateReason. An app may need to monitor accuracy closely if it requires high-precision localization.
