This wiki article aims to provide geometry data on dockable stations in EVE Online for players who have difficulty making use of the CCP Data Dump.  Each station has a "type" which may be seen by using SHOW INFO on the station in question and then viewing the 3-D model.  The station type also appears in the Type column of the Overview while in space in the same solar system as the station.  For all stations of the same type: the point where undocking ships spawn is in the same location relative to the center of the station (X0, Y0, and Z0 in meters); the direction in which undocking ships initially move is a random distribution centered on a given vector (Vx, Vy, Vz in dimensionless units); and the radius of the station is a fixed value.

Locations in a solar system are stored internally in EVE Online as XYZ coordinates in units of meters.  Taking the upwards direction on the Solar System Mapbrowser (by default F11; this is the Mapbrowser, not the Map) as north, then +X is West, +Y is above the ecliptic plane, and +Z is South.  A player ship's current location in this coordinate system (provided that the ship is not moving) may be viewed in NeoCom > PEOPLE & PLACES > PLACES > ADD BOOKMARK.
