Show a callout with the latitude and longitude of user-tapped points.
Use case
Callouts are used to display temporary detail content on a map. You can display text and arbitrary UI controls in callouts.
How to use the sample
Tap anywhere on the map. A callout showing the WGS84 coordinates for the tapped point will appear.
How it works
When the user taps, get the tapped location and create a map Point from it using MapView.screenToLocation(tappedLocation).
Project the point's geometry to WGS84 using GeometryEngine.project(mapPoint, SpatialReferences.getWgs84()).
Create a new Android TextView object and set its text to the coordinate string from the point.
Create a new Callout with MapView.getCallout and set its location on the map with callout.location = mapPoint.
Set the callout's content with callout.content = textView and display it on the map view with callout.show.
