geocentric coordinates

[¦jē·ō¦sen·trik kō′ȯrd·ən·əts]
(astronomy)
Coordinates that define the position of a point with respect to the center of the earth; can be either cartesian (x, y, and z) or spherical (latitude, longitude, and radial distance). Also known as geocentric coordinate system; geocentric position.

If the Cartesian geocentric coordinates [X.sub.i], [Y.sub.i], [Z.sub.i] of an object are known, it is possible to compute its geodetic coordinates [B.sub.i], [L.sub.i], [H.sub.i.sup.(g)] (Moritz 1990; Zakarevicius 1998).
