iOS: CLLocationManager's maximumRegionMonitoringDistance unit of measure

Question

I'm working with the CLLocationManager's maximumRegionMonitoringDistance property in iOS. When I print this value out, I get 2,128,000, but I cannot find any documentation as to what unit of measurement this is in. Any ideas?

2,128,000 seconds equates to ~591 degrees

Answer 1

The documentation for maximumRegionMonitoringDistance shows:

@property(readonly, nonatomic) CLLocationDistance maximumRegionMonitoringDistance

CLLocationDistance is defined in the Core Location Data Types Reference as:

A distance measurement (in meters) from an existing location.
