Package org.orekit.models.earth

This package provides models that simulate certain physical phenomena experienced in the atmosphere of the earth.

See: Description

Interface Summary

Interface	Description
TroposphericDelayModel	Defines a tropospheric model, used to calculate the path delay imposed to electro-magnetic signals between an orbital satellite and a ground station.

Class Summary

Class	Description
EarthStandardAtmosphereRefraction	Implementation of refraction model for Earth standard atmosphere.
FixedTroposphericDelay	A static tropospheric model that interpolates the actual tropospheric delay based on values read from a configuration file (tropospheric-delay.txt) via the DataProvidersManager.
GeoMagneticElements	Contains the elements to represent a magnetic field at a single point.
GeoMagneticField	Used to calculate the geomagnetic field at a given geodetic point on earth.
GeoMagneticFieldFactory	Factory for different GeoMagneticField models.
GeoMagneticModelLoader	Loads geomagnetic field models from a given input stream.
SaastamoinenModel	The modified Saastamoinen model.

Enum Summary

Enum	Description
GeoMagneticFieldFactory.FieldModel	The currently supported geomagnetic field models.
