# UVW Range

Defines a range of coordinates in local 3D space. This is typically associated with the face of a bounding box.

* **U (min/max):** *Position along the horizontal (U) axis.*
* **V (min/max):** *Position along the vertical (V) axis.*
* **W (min/max):** *Position along the normal (W) axis. Unlike the U and V components, the W component is expressed in meters. For example, the point (0.5, 0.5, 1) in UVW space as implemented in this system corresponds to a point aligned to the center of a bounding box face (0.5, 0.5), offset by 1 meter along the face's normal (away from the face).*
