# centerCoordinate

The map coordinate at the center of the map view.

## Declaration

```swift
var centerCoordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2D { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion This point represents the coordinate on which the framework centers the map. When the camera pitch is 0, this property also corresponds to the geographic position of the camera. Changing the pitch to a nonzero value moves the camera, but doesn’t affect this property.
