Extract GIS Coordinate System

Hi,

I’m trying to extract the GIS Coordinate system from Revit 2019.

I’m currently able to pull out the Survey Point, and the associated coordinates, and the Projectbase Point. And I’m getting the correct coordinates, but I’m not sure where to go to get the GIS Coordinate System that is located in the “Manage / Project Location / Location” tab. I’m looking to return the “CANQ-M9” value in the screenshot below.

like this in 2020
need to check the API to see if this is possible in 2019

Hi Andrew,

Thank you, this was ideal.
