# coordinatesType

The type of coordinate system that the measurement conforms to.

## Declaration

```swift
var coordinatesType: NIDLTDOACoordinatesType { get }
```

## Discussion

Discussion Measurements provide coordinates for the anchor that sends the message. Depending on the configuration of the anchor, the coordinates are in one of two formats: NIDLTDOACoordinatesType.geodetic or NIDLTDOACoordinatesType.relative. The value of this property determines the manner in which your app interprets the value of the anchor’s coordinates.
