org.orekit.models.earth.KlobucharIonoCoefficientsLoader

All Implemented Interfaces:

DataLoader

public class KlobucharIonoCoefficientsLoader
extends Object
implements DataLoader

Loads Klobuchar-Style ionospheric coefficients a given input stream. A stream contains the alphas and betas coefficient for a given day.

They are obtained from University of Bern Astronomical Institute ftp. Find more on the files at the Astronomical Institute site.

The files are UNIX-style compressed (.Z) files. They have to be extracted to UTF-8 text files before being read by this loader.

After extraction, it is assumed they are named CGIMDDD0.YYN where DDD and YY substitute day of year and 2-digits year.

The format is always the same, with and example shown below. Only the last 2 lines contains the Klobuchar coefficients.

Constructor Detail

KlobucharIonoCoefficientsLoader

public KlobucharIonoCoefficientsLoader(String supportedNames)

Constructor with supported names given by user.

Parameters:

supportedNames - Supported names

KlobucharIonoCoefficientsLoader

public KlobucharIonoCoefficientsLoader()

Constructor with default supported names.

Method Detail

getAlpha

public double[] getAlpha()

Returns the alpha coefficients array.

Returns:

the alpha coefficients array

getBeta

public double[] getBeta()

Returns the beta coefficients array.

Returns:

the beta coefficients array

getSupportedNames

public String getSupportedNames()

Returns the supported names of the loader.

Returns:

the supported names

loadKlobucharIonosphericCoefficients

public void loadKlobucharIonosphericCoefficients()
                                          throws OrekitException

Load the data using supported names .

Throws:

OrekitException

loadKlobucharIonosphericCoefficients

public void loadKlobucharIonosphericCoefficients(DateComponents dateComponents)
                                          throws OrekitException

Load the data for a given day.

Parameters:

dateComponents - day given but its DateComponents

Throws:

OrekitException - if the coefficients could not be loaded

stillAcceptsData

public boolean stillAcceptsData()

Check if the loader still accepts new data.

This method is used to speed up data loading by interrupting crawling the data sets as soon as a loader has found the data it was waiting for. For loaders that can merge data from any number of sources (for example JPL ephemerides or Earth Orientation Parameters that are split among several files), this method should always return true to make sure no data is left over.

Specified by:

stillAcceptsData in interface DataLoader

Returns:

true while the loader still accepts new data

loadData

public void loadData(InputStream input,
                     String name)
              throws IOException,
                     ParseException,
                     OrekitException

Load Klobuchar-Style ionospheric coefficients read from some file.

Specified by:

loadData in interface DataLoader

Parameters:

input - data input stream

name - name of the file (or zip entry)

Throws:

IOException - if data can't be read

ParseException - if data can't be parsed

OrekitException - if some data is missing or if some loader specific error occurs
