Package org.orekit.models.earth.troposphere

Class GlobalMappingFunctionModel

java.lang.Object

org.orekit.models.earth.troposphere.GlobalMappingFunctionModel

All Implemented Interfaces:

MappingFunction, TroposphereMappingFunction

public class GlobalMappingFunctionModel
extends Object
implements MappingFunction, TroposphereMappingFunction

The Global Mapping Function model for radio techniques. This model is an empirical mapping function. It only needs the values of the station latitude, longitude, height and the date for the computations.

The Global Mapping Function is based on spherical harmonics up to degree and order of 9. It was developed to be consistent with the Vienna1 mapping function model.

This method allows the computation of the hydrostatic and wet mapping functions. The resulting element is an array having the following form:

• double[0] = m_h(e) → hydrostatic mapping function
• double[1] = m_w(e) → wet mapping function

Specified by:

mappingFactors in interface MappingFunction

Parameters:

elevation - the elevation of the satellite, in radians

point - station location

date - current date

Returns:

a two components array containing the hydrostatic and wet mapping functions.
