The apriltag_ros gives you the relative coordinates from the camera to the apriltag. They are also given as tf-frame see tf-package. If you connect your camera-frame with your fixed frame (normaly world or map). You've got your absolut coordinates. The Z-axis is in the direction of the camera view.
