Fields

FieldTypeMeaning
latitudeDegrees number-90 – 90 required Geodetic latitude, −90...90
longitudeDegrees number-180 – 180 required Geodetic longitude, −180...180
altitudeMetres float optional Optional. Ellipsoidal height in metres

WGS84 geodetic pin. Format when present.

A map coordinate for a place - not a postal address and not scene pose. Compose beside rig.place.address when a site has both a civic identity and a pin. A plant standing here composes this with rig.plant.taxon / rig.plant.occurrence.

Datum is WGS84. Do not put projected site-plan metres here - those belong on rig.spatial.transform inside the drawing. Geocoding and CRS conversion are fulfillment.
