ISO 6709, Standard representation of geographic point location by coordinates, is the international standard for representation of latitude, longitude and altitude for geographic point locations. The first edition (ISO 6709:1983) was developed by ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 32.
This document specifies the representation of latitude and longitude and optionally height or depth compatible with previous editions of ISO 6709.

1,516 1 10 21. For anyone reading this, it's not correct; WSG84 is lat/long and that's how the relevant ISO spec says you should present latitude and longitude. The currently accepted answer, which states there is no universal standard, is factually incorrect.

A geographic coordinate system ( GCS) is a spherical or geodetic coordinate system for measuring and communicating positions directly on the Earth as latitude and longitude. [1] .
