	One useful way to get coordinates are by using a script with funcions [[llGetRegionCorner]] or [[llRequestSimulatorData]]. The Gridsurvey [http://www.gridsurvey.com] uses coordinates in sims (not in meters). Since a sim is a square of 256 meters, by dividing the coordinates to 256 and using only the integer part of the value, you can get the sim coordinates.

			These are the coordinates for the position of a sim (region) on the map. These can be obtained from an in-world device, from Gridsurvey or from a script:

The best way to define a Geographival place, both inworld and in real world, is to use the coordinates. The first number is '''longitude''', the last is '''latitude'''. Based on these coordinates, there are some interesting informations about the grid map:
			* The most Western private sim is ''Calabaza Island'' (400,1568) and neighbouring sims.
			* The most Western mainland sim is ''Bay City - Truro'' (982,1002) and neighbouring sims.
			* The most Eastern private sim is ''NYU GNU1'' (1388,1384).
			* The most Eastern mainland sim is ''Duval'' (1821,1192) and others in East coast of [[Zindra]].
			* The most Northern private sim is ''Wake Island'' (486,1671) or Okinawa.
			* The most Northern mainland sim is ''Rauban'' (1141,1130) and neighbours, from [[Gaeta 1]] continent.
			* The most Southern private sim is ''Saint Niguel Isle'' (510,691).
			* The most Southern mainland sim is ''Saminekim'' (1011,479) or Unttan, in the Premium Sea (see [[Premium continents]]).
			* The most isolated sims are ''Sweeney'' (700,791), Lovett and Insulae Esoterica.

			If we make abstraction of [[Zindra]] Continent who is too far to the East. the world map takes the form of a square of 988/1192 sims (253/305 km). At this size, the map can host 1 178 000 sims. Data from Gridsurvey tell us that the total number of sims is 26 726 (September 27th, 2013), so the sim density is about 2.27%.

Circles indicate they are approximately at your height. A ^ indicates they are higher than you, and V indicates lower. Yellow dots are friends, others are in green. Hovering the mouse over a marker will show their name. Sometimes, an avatar is shown sa an x. That means that the position of that avatar is not known. This happens when there are major differences of altitude between you and that avatar or when it crashed. Linden employers are not visible on the map.
