I'm playing Minecraft on the Xbox, and the only way to identify current position is by looking at the map.
The X and Z co-ordinates are what they are, as you only take up one block in those dimensions. However, I'm unsure how to interpret the Y co-ordinate. Is it at my head or my feet?
I found this question, which answers a lot about Xbox maps, but not the Y in relation to my character.
This matters for the purpose of finding proper depth for optimal ore-hunting, plus it would be nice to know.

In the PC version, pressing F3 would show the Y coordinate at eye level, having a value about 1.5 blocks higher than where the feet are. In later patches, the Y coordinate at feet level was added to this information.
Considering the 360 version isn't as updated as the PC version, you're probably looking at the eye-level coordinates.
Again, having only a 1.5 block difference from eye to foot level, you could try making a tower to the sky. Since the height limit is 127, eye level should be 129, rounded up from 128.5.
