  The Delta Quadrants is not featured in that image, only the lower two quarters. Putting into context, that map is the lower blob in this:

    The Alpha-Beta blob should be shifted down a bit, and possibly shrunk. Earth is significantly closer to the galactic rim, on that arm that currently goes across the southern edge of the Alpha-Beta blob.

    Is that Borg collective BJ or PJ (before Janeway/post Janeway)?

  The Sol system is ~26,000 light years from the center of the galaxy. The UFP is about 8000 light years distant according to Picard in First Contact. So the Delta quadrant would be triple the distance that this maps shows away in the direction of the Romulans. That’s my best guess as I can’t find a reliable quadrant map.

    So, if they had had to take the long way home, would they have wound up stuck on the other side of the Romulans? I’m sure the Romulans would love the story about the Star Fleet ship just happened to end up on the other side of their border because of unexplainable godlike powers. That definitely wouldn’t cause any issues. I’m sure they’d have given Voyager safe passage back to the Federation

      Well the Romulan Government knew of Voyager and where they were because of that time voyager contacted Telek R’mor through a micro wormhole into the past. Barclay even mentions that the Romulans were very interested in Voyager for some time.

        Oh, that’s a good point. It would have been cool to see that come back and save them at the end

  Delta and Gamma quadrants would be on the opposite side of the galactic center and aren’t pictured.
