It would be great if it would be possible to choose the order of displaing and inserting geographic coordinates in ESRI products including ArcGIS online. According to ISO 6709 latitude should come before longitude but ESRI prefers the reverse order. Presently if you copy the coordinates from/to Google maps (and all other maps), it's necessary to change the order.

I agree, standard in Sweden is:

Presentation in order North, East and Level.

Name for axis are North = X, East = Y and Level = Z, and we use clockwise direction for angle with 400 for one turn.

These settings are different in different countries therefor ArcGIS need these setting to customize system for regional settings.
