    coordinateFormat = #,##0.00000

    @Inject
    protected Messages messages;
    @Inject
    protected UserSessionSource userSessionSource;
    ...
    String coordinateFormat = messages.getMainMessage("coordinateFormat");
    FormatStrings formatStrings = Datatypes.getFormatStrings(userSessionSource.getLocale());
    NumberFormat format = new DecimalFormat(coordinateFormat, formatStrings.getFormatSymbols());
    
    String formattedValue = format.format(value);
