Correction to: Report of the IAU Working Group on cartographic coordinates and rotational elements: 2015

December 2, 2019

We point out some errors in the most recent report from the International Astronomical Union (IAU) Working Group on Cartographic Coordinates and Rotational Elements (Archinal et al. 2018). We correct a sign error in Figs. 1 and 2. We also correct the equation for the prime meridian position (W) of Mars’ satellite Phobos in Table 2.
