You can get and mark coordinates of a location in any point cloud, 3D model and 360° image with depth information. However, to get meaningful coordinates, your captures should meet the following prerequisites:
A point cloud should have a valid coordinate system, i.e. it was either registered to survey points in SCENE, aligned to a 3D model in Sphere XG, or if Blink scans were processed and registered in Sphere XG.
A 3D model should have a valid coordinate system.
A 360° image should have orientation information in addition to the depth information.
In addition, you can get and copy the location of an annotation or a measurement. For more information, see Create and Manage Annotations and Make Measurements in a Project.
If you only want to get a location and copy the coordinates, simply click the location you want. The coordinates are copied to the clipboard.
If you want to place a pin and mark the position for the current browser session in all views, press and hold Shift and right-click the position you want. The location is marked with a 
. To get the coordinates of a pin, click the pin and select the coordinates from the context menu. The coordinates are copied to the clipboard.

The above figure shows the same pin in an overlay of a point cloud and a 2D view.
Another use case is placing a pin in a 360° image with depth information and then following this pin as you move from 360° image to 360° image.
