## Coordinate Systems, Map Projections, and Position Offsets

For a more detailed explanation, see Section 6.1.

The NCS will support a variety of astronomical coordinate systems and projections, as well as “descriptive” coordinate systems defined by the user. Up to now, , only equatorial coordinates, J2000.0, are well tested and available for use.
