Method Detail

getData

AtmosphereData getData(AbsoluteDate date,
                       Vector3D position,
                       Frame frame)
                       throws OrekitException

Get detailed atmospheric data.

Parameters:

date - current date

position - current position in frame

frame - the frame in which is defined the position

Returns:

detailed atmospheric data

Throws:

OrekitException - if some atmospheric data cannot be retrieved (because date is out of range of solar activity model or if some frame conversion cannot be performed)
