Google. XR. ARCoreExtensions. GeospatialPose
Describes a specific location, elevation, and compass heading relative to Earth.
Summary
It is comprised of:
- Latitude and longitude are specified in degrees, with positive values being north of the equator and east of the prime meridian as defined by the WGS84 specification.
- Altitude is specified in meters above the WGS84 ellipsoid, which is roughly equivalent to meters above sea level.
- Heading is specified in degrees clockwise from north. See
GeospatialPose.Heading
for more information. - Accuracy of the latitude, longitude, altitude, and heading are available as numeric confidence intervals where a large value (large interval) means low confidence and small value (small interval) means high confidence.

Altitude
double Google::XR::ARCoreExtensions::GeospatialPose::Altitude
Altitude of the pose in meters above the WGS 84 ellipsoid.
Heading
double Google::XR::ARCoreExtensions::GeospatialPose::Heading
Heading of the pose in degrees.
Heading is specified in degrees clockwise from true north and approximates the direction the device is facing. The value returned when facing north is 0°, when facing east is 90°, when facing south is +/-180°, and when facing west is -90°.
The heading approximation is based on the rotation of the device in its current orientation mode (i.e. portrait or landscape) and pitch. For example, when the device is held vertically or upright, the heading is based on the camera optical axis. If the device is held horizontally, looking downwards, the heading is based on the top of the device, with respect to the orientation mode.
Note: Heading is currently only supported in the device's default orientation mode, which is portrait mode for most supported devices.
HeadingAccuracy
double Google::XR::ARCoreExtensions::GeospatialPose::HeadingAccuracy
Estimated heading accuracy in degrees.
We define heading accuracy as the radius of the 68th percentile confidence level around Heading
. In other words, there is a 68% probability that the true heading is within HeadingAccuracy
of Heading
. Larger values indicate lower accuracy.
For example, if the estimated heading is 60°, and the heading accuracy is 10°, then there is a 68% probability of the true heading being between 50° and 70°.
HorizontalAccuracy
double Google::XR::ARCoreExtensions::GeospatialPose::HorizontalAccuracy
Estimated horizontal accuracy in meters with respect to latitude and longitude.
We define horizontal accuracy as the radius of the 68th percentile confidence level around the estimated horizontal location. In other words, if you draw a circle centered at Latitude
and Longitude
, and with a radius equal to the horizontal accuracy, then there is a 68% probability that the true location is inside the circle. Larger numbers indicate lower accuracy.
For example, if the latitude is 10°, longitude is 10°, and the returned value is 15, then there is a 68% probability that the true location is within 15 meters of the (10°, 10°) latitude/longitude coordinate.
Latitude
double Google::XR::ARCoreExtensions::GeospatialPose::Latitude
Latitude of the pose in degrees.
Positive values are north of the equator as defined by the WGS84 specification.
Longitude
double Google::XR::ARCoreExtensions::GeospatialPose::Longitude
Longitude of the pose in degrees.
Positive values are east of the prime meridian as defined by the WGS84 specification.
VerticalAccuracy
double Google::XR::ARCoreExtensions::GeospatialPose::VerticalAccuracy
Estimated horizontal accuracy in meters.
We define vertical accuracy as the radius of the 68th percentile confidence level around the estimated altitude. In other words, there is a 68% probability that the true altitude is within the output value (in meters) of this Altitude
(above or below). Larger numbers indicate lower accuracy.
For example, if Altitude
is 100 meters, and VerticalAccuracy
is 20 meters, there is a 68% chance that the true altitude is within 20 meters of 100 meters.
