# CGImagePropertyOrientation.up

The encoded image data matches the image’s intended display orientation.

## Declaration

```swift
case up
```

## Discussion

Discussion The (x,y) pixel coordinates of the origin point (0,0) represent the leftmost column and top row, respectively. Pixel (x,y) positions increase left-to-right, top-to-bottom. If an image is encoded with this orientation, then displayed by software unaware of orientation metadata, the image appears correctly “right side up”. That is, this orientation is an identity value.
