The galactic coordinate system is a celestial coordinate system in spherical coordinates, with the Sun as its center, the primary direction aligned with the approximate center of the Milky Way Galaxy, and the fundamental plane parallel to an approximation of the galactic plane but offset to its north.
The NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database (NED) is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and operated by the California Institute of Technology.
Galactic latitude ranges from -90° to +90° (below and above the galactic plane respectively), and galactic longitude ranges from 0° to 360°. The galactic longitude l of an object is the angular distance around the Galactic equator from the Galactic centre at l = 0⁰ (towards the constellation Sagittarius) to the object.
Galactic coordinate, in astronomy, galactic latitude or longitude. The two coordinates constitute a useful means of locating the relative positions and motions of components of the Milky Way Galaxy. Galactic latitude (denoted by the symbol b) is measured in degrees north or south of the Galaxy’s.

Las coordenadas son la longitud galáctica (l) y la latitud galáctica (b). La longitud galáctica se mide sobre el plano de la misma, en sentido antihorario a partir de la línea que une al Sol con el centro de la galaxia (0° 360°). La latitud galáctica es el ángulo que forma el objeto con el plano de la galaxia.
The galactic coordinate system uses the approximate plane of the Milky Way Galaxy as its fundamental plane. The Solar System is still the center of the coordinate system, and the zero point is defined as the direction towards the Galactic Center .
