  - getEOPHistory
```
EOPHistory getEOPHistory(IERSConventions conventions,
                         boolean simpleEOP)
```
    Get Earth Orientation Parameters history.
    
    Parameters:
    
    conventions - conventions for which EOP history is requested
    
    simpleEOP - if true, tidal effects are ignored when interpolating EOP
    
    Returns:
    
    Earth Orientation Parameters history
  - getFrame
```
Frame getFrame(Predefined factoryKey)
```
    Get one of the predefined frames.
    
    Parameters:
    
    factoryKey - key of the frame within the factory
    
    Returns:
    
    the predefined frame
  - getGCRF
```
Frame getGCRF()
```
    Get the unique GCRF frame.
    The GCRF frame is the root frame in the frame tree.
    
    Returns:
    
    the unique instance of the GCRF frame
  - getICRF
```
Frame getICRF()
```
    Get the unique ICRF frame.
    The ICRF frame is centered at solar system barycenter and aligned with GCRF.
    
    Returns:
    
    the unique instance of the ICRF frame
  - getEcliptic
```
Frame getEcliptic(IERSConventions conventions)
```
    Get the ecliptic frame. The IAU defines the ecliptic as "the plane perpendicular to the mean heliocentric orbital angular momentum vector of the Earth-Moon barycentre in the BCRS (IAU 2006 Resolution B1)." The +z axis is aligned with the angular momentum vector, and the +x axis is aligned with +x axis of MOD.
    This implementation agrees with the JPL 406 ephemerides to within 0.5 arc seconds.
    
    Parameters:
    
    conventions - IERS conventions to apply
    
    Returns:
    
    the selected reference frame singleton.
  - getEME2000
```
FactoryManagedFrame getEME2000()
```
    Get the unique EME2000 frame.
    The EME2000 frame is also called the J2000 frame. The former denomination is preferred in Orekit.
    
    Returns:
    
    the unique instance of the EME2000 frame
  - getITRF
```
FactoryManagedFrame getITRF(IERSConventions conventions,
                            boolean simpleEOP)
```
    Get an unspecified International Terrestrial Reference Frame.
    The frame returned uses the Earth Orientation Parameters blindly. So if for example one loads only EOP 14 C04 files to retrieve the parameters, the frame will be an ITRFVersion.ITRF_2014. However, if parameters are loaded from different files types, or even for file types that changed their reference (like Bulletin A switching from ITRFVersion.ITRF_2008 to ITRFVersion.ITRF_2014 starting with Vol. XXXI No. 013 published on 2018-03-29), then the ITRF returned by this method will jump from one version to another version.
    
    IF a specific version of ITRF is needed, then getITRF(ITRFVersion, IERSConventions, boolean) should be used instead.
    
    Parameters:
    
    conventions - IERS conventions to apply
    
    simpleEOP - if true, tidal effects are ignored when interpolating EOP
    
    Returns:
    
    the selected reference frame singleton.

  - getTIRF
```
FactoryManagedFrame getTIRF(IERSConventions conventions)
```
    Get the TIRF reference frame, ignoring tidal effects.
    
    Parameters:
    
    conventions - IERS conventions to apply
    
    Returns:
    
    the selected reference frame singleton. library cannot be read.
  - getITRF
```
VersionedITRF getITRF(ITRFVersion version,
                      IERSConventions conventions,
                      boolean simpleEOP)
```
    Get an specific International Terrestrial Reference Frame.
    Note that if a specific version of ITRF is required, then simpleEOP should most probably be set to false, as ignoring tidal effects has an effect of the same order of magnitude as the differences between the various ITRF versions.
    
    Parameters:
    
    version - ITRF version
    
    conventions - IERS conventions to apply
    
    simpleEOP - if true, tidal effects are ignored when interpolating EOP
    
    Returns:
    
    the selected reference frame singleton.

  - buildUncachedITRF
```
Frame buildUncachedITRF(UT1Scale ut1)
```
    Build an uncached International Terrestrial Reference Frame with specific EOP history.
    This frame and its parent frames (TIRF and CIRF) will not be cached, they are rebuilt from scratch each time this method is called. This factory method is intended to be used when EOP history is changed at run time. For regular ITRF use, the getITRF(IERSConventions, boolean) and {link getITRF(ITRFVersion, IERSConventions, boolean) are more suitable.
    
    Parameters:
    
    ut1 - UT1 time scale (contains the EOP history)
    
    Returns:
    
    an ITRF frame with specified time scale and embedded EOP history

                            boolean simpleEOP)
```
    Get the TIRF reference frame.
    
    Parameters:
    
    conventions - IERS conventions to apply
    
    simpleEOP - if true, tidal effects are ignored when interpolating EOP
    
    Returns:
    
    the selected reference frame singleton.
    
    Since:
    
    6.1
  - getCIRF
```
FactoryManagedFrame getCIRF(IERSConventions conventions,
                            boolean simpleEOP)
```
    Get the CIRF2000 reference frame.
    
    Parameters:

    simpleEOP - if true, tidal effects are ignored when interpolating EOP
    
    Returns:
    
    the selected reference frame singleton.
  - getVeis1950
```
FactoryManagedFrame getVeis1950()
```
    Get the VEIS 1950 reference frame.
    Its parent frame is the GTOD frame with IERS 1996 conventions without EOP corrections.
    
    Returns:
    
    the selected reference frame singleton.
  - getITRFEquinox
```
FactoryManagedFrame getITRFEquinox(IERSConventions conventions,
                                   boolean simpleEOP)
```
    Get the equinox-based ITRF reference frame.
    
    Parameters:
    
    conventions - IERS conventions to apply
    
    simpleEOP - if true, tidal effects are ignored when interpolating EOP
    
    Returns:
    
    the selected reference frame singleton.
    
    Since:
    
    6.1
  - getGTOD
```
FactoryManagedFrame getGTOD(boolean applyEOPCorr)
```
    Get the GTOD reference frame.
    The applyEOPCorr parameter is available mainly for testing purposes or for consistency with legacy software that don't handle EOP correction parameters. Beware that setting this parameter to false leads to crude accuracy (order of magnitudes for errors might be above 250m in LEO and 1400m in GEO). For this reason, setting this parameter to false is restricted to IERS 1996 conventions, and hence the IERS conventions cannot be freely chosen here.
    
    Parameters:
    
    applyEOPCorr - if true, EOP corrections are applied (here, dut1 and lod)
    
    Returns:
    
    the selected reference frame singleton.
  - getGTOD
```
FactoryManagedFrame getGTOD(IERSConventions conventions,
                            boolean simpleEOP)
```
    Get the GTOD reference frame.
    
    Parameters:
    
    conventions - IERS conventions to apply
    
    simpleEOP - if true, tidal effects are ignored when interpolating EOP
    
    Returns:
    
    the selected reference frame singleton.
  - getTOD
```
FactoryManagedFrame getTOD(boolean applyEOPCorr)
```
    Get the TOD reference frame.
    The applyEOPCorr parameter is available mainly for testing purposes or for consistency with legacy software that don't handle EOP correction parameters. Beware that setting this parameter to false leads to crude accuracy (order of magnitudes for errors might be above 1m in LEO and 10m in GEO). For this reason, setting this parameter to false is restricted to IERS 1996 conventions, and hence the IERS conventions cannot be freely chosen here.
    
    Parameters:
    
    applyEOPCorr - if true, EOP corrections are applied (here, nutation)
    
    Returns:
    
    the selected reference frame singleton.
  - getTOD
```
FactoryManagedFrame getTOD(IERSConventions conventions,
                           boolean simpleEOP)
```
    Get the TOD reference frame.
    
    Parameters:
    
    conventions - IERS conventions to apply
    
    simpleEOP - if true, tidal effects are ignored when interpolating EOP
    
    Returns:
    
    the selected reference frame singleton.
  - getMOD
```
FactoryManagedFrame getMOD(boolean applyEOPCorr)
```
    Get the MOD reference frame.
    The applyEOPCorr parameter is available mainly for testing purposes or for consistency with legacy software that don't handle EOP correction parameters. Beware that setting this parameter to false leads to crude accuracy (order of magnitudes for errors might be above 1m in LEO and 10m in GEO). For this reason, setting this parameter to false is restricted to IERS 1996 conventions, and hence the IERS conventions cannot be freely chosen here.
    
    Parameters:
    
    applyEOPCorr - if true, EOP corrections are applied (EME2000/GCRF bias compensation)
    
    Returns:
    
    the selected reference frame singleton.
  - getMOD
```
FactoryManagedFrame getMOD(IERSConventions conventions)
```
    Get the MOD reference frame.
    
    Parameters:
    
    conventions - IERS conventions to apply
    
    Returns:
    
    the selected reference frame singleton.
  - getTEME
```
FactoryManagedFrame getTEME()
```
    Get the TEME reference frame.
    The TEME frame is used for the SGP4 model in TLE propagation. This frame has no official definition and there are some ambiguities about whether it should be used as "of date" or "of epoch". This frame should therefore be used only for TLE propagation and not for anything else, as recommended by the CCSDS Orbit Data Message blue book.
    
    Returns:
    
    the selected reference frame singleton.
  - getPZ9011
```
FactoryManagedFrame getPZ9011(IERSConventions convention,

```
    Get the PZ-90.11 (Parametry Zemly – 1990.11) reference frame.
    The PZ-90.11 reference system was updated on all operational GLONASS satellites starting from 3:00 pm on December 31, 2013.
    
    The transition between parent frame (ITRF-2008) and PZ-90.11 frame is performed using a seven parameters Helmert transformation.

    Parameters:
    
    convention - IERS conventions to apply
    
    simpleEOP - if true, tidal effects are ignored when interpolating EOP
    
    Returns:
