Satellite: SEET SAA Crossing Times

Computes the SAA (South Atlantic Anomaly) transit times for the vehicle for the channel and flux level specified by the vehicle's SAA contour settings. Valid for vehicles whose central body is earth.

NameDimensionTypeDescription
Entrance Pass NumberUnitlessInteger Satellite pass number at interval start time. Pass numbers are continuously increasing counts of orbit revolutions. Valid for satellites only.
Entrance TimeDateFormatReal NumberThe time when the vehicle crosses into the SAA.
Entrance AltitudeDistanceUnitReal NumberThe vehicle's altitude at the entrance time.
Entrance LatitudeLatitudeUnitReal NumberThe vehicle's detic latitude at the entrance time.
Entrance LongitudeLongitudeUnitReal NumberThe vehicle's detic longitude at the entrance time.
Entrance Flux intensityFluxIntensityReal Number or TextThe flux intensity at the vehicle's location at the entrance time. If the location is below the minimum altitude of the grid, the value will be "Below SAA"; if the location is above the maximum altitude of the grid, the value will be "Above SAA"; if the value could not be computed then the value will be "No Data Available".
Exit Pass NumberUnitlessInteger Satellite pass number at interval end time. Pass numbers are continuously increasing counts of orbit revolutions. Valid for satellites only.
Exit TimeDateFormatReal NumberThe time when the vehicle crosses out of the SAA.
Exit AltitudeDistanceUnitReal NumberThe vehicle's altitude at the exit time.
Exit LatitudeLatitudeUnitReal NumberThe vehicle's detic latitude at the exit time.
Exit LongitudeLongitudeUnitReal NumberThe vehicle's detic longitude at the exit time.
Exit Flux intensityFluxIntensityReal Number or TextThe flux intensity at the vehicle's location at the exit time. If the location is below the minimum altitude of the grid, the value will be "Below SAA"; if the location is above the maximum altitude of the grid, the value will be "Above SAA"; if the value could not be computed then the value will be "No Data Available".
DurationTimeUnitReal NumberThe duration of the event.
