Aircraft: Lighting AER: ECIVVLH
Earth centered inertial vehicle velocity local horizontal frame. This frame has the Z axis aligned with the anti-radial direction and the X axis constrained toward the inertial velocity direction. This frame is not restricted to Earth oriented vehicles despite its name.

Azimuth |
LongitudeUnit |
Real Number |
Dihedral angle between north vector and velocity vector about the detic nadir vector.
The velocity vector is the velocity of the object, as observed in the object's
central body fixed coordinate system. |
Elevation |
AngleUnit |
Real Number |
Angle between the velocity vector and the local horizontal plane.
The velocity vector is the velocity of the object, as observed in the object's
central body fixed coordinate system. |
Range |
DistanceUnit |
Real Number |
The range (i.e., distance between the primary and secondary object)
at the given time. |
To Nadir Angle |
AngleUnit |
Real Number |
Angle between the apparent sun direction and the nadir direction where nadir is defined as the direction to the center of the central body. |
