Which is the projection of the output coordinates when running geocode(., method ="arcgis")?
When I run geocode() with method = "osm" I set the output as EPSG: 4326 when converting to a spatvector and they appear on the map when plotting with tmap_mode("view"). Instead, if I use it with method = "arcgis" they dont appear. From the documentation, they specify the View mode of tmap does not show projected coordinates. Hence, I tried the output as EPSG: 3857 when converting to spatvector (which is one of the default projections for arcgis), and then reprojecting to EPSG: 4326 and the points still don't show with tmap on view mode. Which makes me wonder, what is the EPSG of the output of each of the methods? I have looked everywhere in the reference manuals, for tidygeocoder, geocode, within the arcgis documentation. I cannot find it anywhere, I just assumed it was EPSG:4326 for the osm-derived coordinated because that is the default of the OSM database, but for method="arcgis" this doesnt seem to be the case. As an improvement suggestion for the documentation, I would suggest adding the projection of the output across methods into the documentation.
