Hi,
Hi Evan,
With all the discussion recently about data loading recently I thought it is a good time to bring up another data loading idea. Currently once the EOP data are loaded and frames are created the EOP data can't be updated. For long running web services it would be nice to be able to ingest new EOP as they are available. That way you could use the latest EOP data without restarting the server. Do other orekit users think this would be useful? Would it be in scope for a SOCIS project?
This is a good idea.Fell free to update the SOCIS page to add your project (once again, if you consider you can help mentoring the student).
Please note that students have two weeks to apply to projects, after which we have to sort the applications in preference order so ESA can do the final selection. This implies that any project idea has to be put on the wiki fast enough.
For the data update to work, we would need to have cooperation from the user application to avoid frames inconsistency. Perhaps something similar to what we currently do in the unit tests to clear out the old data, add new providers, and then let Orekit load the updated data.
In this case, we will need to do that with defined public API. What is acceptable in unit test is really not acceptable in the operational library.
best regards, Luc
Best Regards, Evan
