public class ViennaOneModel
extends Object
implements DiscreteTroposphericModel

The Vienna1 tropospheric delay model for radio techniques. The Vienna model data are given with a time interval of 6 hours as well as on a global 2.5° * 2.0° grid. This version considered the height correction for the hydrostatic part developed by Niell, 1996.
