The concept of a position vector, generally symbolized as 'r', refers to the accurate description of a point's location in a given coordinate system. This vector is calculated based on the coordinates of the point of interest, and starts from a commonly accepted reference point, usually the origin. In order to determine the position vector, one must subtract the coordinates of the initial point from those of the final point.
