The geographic location specifies the model's real-world location using global coordinates.
Specify the geographic location using the Location tool
on the Manage tab. You can select the nearest city from a list or use an Internet mapping service to specify a street address or the latitude and longitude.
Revit LT uses the geographic location as follows:
- To define the location of the model on the Earth's surface.
- To generate location-specific shadows for views that use them, such as solar studies and walkthroughs.
The geographic location does not affect the following:
- The project address that displays in the title blocks of sheets. See Enter Project-Specific Information for Title Blocks.
- The project base point
- The survey point
