Getting Lat/Long from Camera point

BrianBulla

Hi,

I'm trying to get the the Lat/Long coordinates of the active MapView Camera point.  I can get the Camera point in X/Y, but having trouble converting.  This is how I am doing it:

MapPoint cameraPoint = MapPointBuilder.CreateMapPoint(Camera.X, Camera.Y);
var projectedPoint = GeometryEngine.Instance.Project(cameraPoint, SpatialReferences.WGS84) as MapPoint;

 

Any guidance is appreciated.

When you create the MapPoint you have to include the Camera's spatial reference.  This worked for me, but it's Pro 3.0:

MapPoint cameraPoint = MapPointBuilderEx.CreateMapPoint(cameraBefore.X,
  cameraBefore.Y, cameraBefore.SpatialReference);
var projectedPoint = GeometryEngine.Instance.Project(cameraPoint, SpatialReferences.WGS84) as MapPoint;
MessageBox.Show($@"projected [x,y]: {projectedPoint.X}, {projectedPoint.Y}");
