Time. |
Yaw |
AngleUnit |
Real Number |
The yaw angle for the primary object's ellipsoid at the given time. The yaw angle locates from the tangential direction the projection of the major axis of the ellipsoid onto the plane whose normal is the cross-track direction. |
Pitch |
AngleUnit |
Real Number |
The pitch angle for the primary object's ellipsoid at the given time. The pitch angle locates the major axis of the ellipsoid from the plane whose normal is the cross-track direction. |
Roll |
AngleUnit |
Real Number |
Roll angle between the two sets of axes.
Defines rotation about the x-axis of the reference set,
which occurs in order defined by placement of its index (1) in selected sequence in YPR angles representation.
