Mapkit position currently being used

[newDev]

Is it possible to find the position currently being viewed by the user. For example the user is viewing a location 20 miles away from their current location, can i get the longitude and latitude of that location?

Thanks!

Take a look at the region property of your map view.

Awesome! Duncan i knew you'd be the one to give me an answer.

Also for future reference to anyone looking try something like this:

-(void)mapView:(MKMapView *)theMapView regionDidChangeAnimated:(BOOL)animated{
 NSLog(@" %@, %@",theMapView.region.center.longitude, theMapView.region.center.latitude);
}

it will give you the location on the map after the user finishes panning.
