Display the geographic coordinate system that XYZ values relate to

Currently, I dont see any details of the geographic coordinate system that the XYZ values relate to.

Without knowing that coordinate system, the XYZ values are arbitrary.

    Thanks you for the clarification. The additional information like CRS and datum is displayed in the Geospatial Metadata widget, details on this featire can be found here:

    Hi Noel Gonzalez-Jones,

    The information is still missing. Nowhere in the panel you highlighted in the image does it identify the co-ordinate system that the XYZ value is related to.

    Took 4yrs to not provide any more information...

    The Location measurements do not state what coordinate system (or datum) they are referring to.

    Example: WGS84 etc.

    The imodel has a coordinate system applied on imodel creation. Can this not be displayed somewhere in the interface?

    Kind regards,

    Sorry for the delay in the response to this idea. However, I believe this has been implemented with the Location option in the measure tools. Screen below for reference:

    If this is not the case, please can you provide more details and we will investigate.
