# state

A value that describes the session’s current geo-tracking state.

```
var state: ARGeoTrackingStatus.State { get }
```

## Discussion

For any [`state`](/documentation/ARKit/ARGeoTrackingStatus/state-swift.property) in a frame’s [`geoTrackingStatus`](/documentation/ARKit/ARFrame/geoTrackingStatus), ARKit provides a [`stateReason`](/documentation/ARKit/ARGeoTrackingStatus/stateReason-swift.property). A given geo-tracking status may intermix states and reasons, so the reasons are not tied to specific states.
