This page is from an older release and has no plain-text version; the current release does.

Every page in the current release follows the same pattern, so you can build the URL directly instead of fetching an index: a page at /nsdk/<page>/ is at /llms-nsdk/<page>.txt — but not the older release this page belongs to.

How to Use Location AR with Code

Use VPS2 Site and asset localization for Location AR. Select a Site at runtime, call the platform's localize API with its Site ID, and place content relative to the asset that VPS2 localizes against.

The Site ID is the localization target. A localized asset ID is available only after visual localization succeeds; use the matching asset's tracking transform for AR placement. Do not use an anchor payload as the map identifier.

Platform	Start localization	Read the asset pose
Swift	`localize(siteId:)`	`assetTrackingData(assetId:)`
Kotlin	`localize(siteId)`	`getAssetTrackingData(assetId)`
Unity	`TryLocalize(...)`	Use the localized asset tracking pose exposed by your installed NSDK version.

You can instead call the latitude, longitude, and radius overload to find eligible Sites nearby. These requests are additive and asynchronous, so wait for a localized asset before trying to render map-relative content.
