# init(center:latitudinalMeters:longitudinalMeters:)

Creates a new coordinate region from the specified coordinate and distance values.

## Declaration

```swift
init(center centerCoordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2D, latitudinalMeters: CLLocationDistance, longitudinalMeters: CLLocationDistance)
```

## Parameters

- `centerCoordinate`: The center point of the new coordinate region.
- `latitudinalMeters`: The north-to-south span of the region (measured in meters) specified as the distance from the center point to the bounds along the north-to-south axis.
- `longitudinalMeters`: The east-to-west span of the region (measured in meters) specified as the distance from the center point to the bounds along the east-to-west axis.

## Return Value

Return Value A region with the specified values.
