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
- Create an
ArcGISMapand set it on anArcGISMapView. - Configure an
onTapevent handler on theArcGISMapView. - Project the tapped location to WGS84 using
GeometryEngine.project. - Display the tapped location’s coordinates in a callout with
ArcGISMapViewController.callout.showAt.
Relevant API
- ArcGISMapView
- ArcGISMapViewController.callout
- GeometryEngine.project
