Supergalactic cartesian coordinate system
Supergalactic cartesian coordinate system is, just as is visible from
its name, a cartesian version of the supergalactic coordinate system.
To calculate supergalactic SGX, SGY, and SGZ one has to know the
coordinates of an object in some other system and also its distance to
the origin of that coordinate system. By definition the direction of
SGX has values SGL = 0 deg, SGB = 0 deg, that of SGY has SGL = 90 deg,
SGB = 0 deg, and that of SGZ has SGL = 0 deg, SGB = 90 deg.

article.
