Get information about atmospheric models.
Atmosphere_RM <ObjectPath> GetValue [<AttributePath>]
The Atmosphere_RM command allows you to get the value(s) of specific atmospheric absorption models as pointed to by a specific attribute.
Hint: Valid objects for <ObjectPath> are Facilities, Places, Targets, Ground Vehicles, Ships, Aircraft, LaunchVehicles and Missiles.
If <AttributePath> is not included then the command will return the list of all attributes, and the values of those attributes.
Use the Atmosphere command to set attribute values.
There are three properties common to all attributes that can be used to retrieve information about them - Properties, Choices, and Size. These properties should be placed at the end of the attribute path, separated from the attribute by a colon (e.g., :Choices). The following table describes these properties.
Note: The command with Properties, Choices or Size specified may nack if the property is not valid the for attribute.
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Properties | Use Properties to retrieve the currently defined values of all of the properties of the attribute. This includes items such as minimum and maximum values of the attribute, the dimension and unit of the attribute, etc. |
| Choices | The Choices property returns a list of all possible choices for non-Boolean attributes with specific arrays of values. |
| Size | The Size property returns the number of rows in the attribute's list, for attributes that can have rows of values. |
Use this command in conjunction with the Atmosphere command which is used to set properties for a specific attribute.
Return the name and value of the Atmosphere attributes for Facility1:

UserComment = STK Atmosphere Extension
InheritAtmosAbsorptionModel = true
AtmosAbsorptionModel = Simple_Satcom (Read-only)
AtmosAbsorptionModel.UserComment = Simple Satcom gaseous absorption model (Read-only)

LocalRainRate = 1.00000000 mm*hr^-1 (Read-only)
LocalSurfaceTemp = 293.15000000 K (Read-only)
Return the Properties of the AtmosAbsorptionModel.SurfaceTemperature attribute:
Atmosphere_RM */Facility/Facility1 GetValue AtmosAbsorptionModel.SurfaceTemperature:Properties
AtmosAbsorptionModel.SurfaceTemperature:Properties.Description = Surface Temperature (Read-only)
AtmosAbsorptionModel.SurfaceTemperature:Properties.ReadOnly = true
AtmosAbsorptionModel.SurfaceTemperature:Properties.class = QUANTITY

AtmosAbsorptionModel.SurfaceTemperature:Properties.Max = 373.15000000 K (Read-only)
AtmosAbsorptionModel.SurfaceTemperature:Properties.Dimension = Temperature
AtmosAbsorptionModel.SurfaceTemperature:Properties.Unit = K
Return the value of the LocalRainIsoHeight attribute:
Atmosphere_RM */Facility/Facility1 GetValue LocalRainIsoHeight
LocalRainIsoHeight = 2000.00000000 m (Read-only)
To see the available Atmospheric Absorption Model names use the Atmosphere_RM GetValue command with the Choices option on the AtmosAbsorptionModel attribute:
Atmosphere_RM */Facility/Perth GetValue AtmosAbsorptionModel:Choices
ITU-R_P676-5
Script_Plugin
Simple_Satcom
TIREM_3.31
ITU-R_P676-3
TIREM_3.20
To change the Atmospheric Absorption Model to ITU-R_P676-5:
Atmosphere */Facility/Perth SetValue AtmosAbsorptionModel ITU-R_P676-5
Now use the Atmosphere_RM GetValue command, specifying the AtmosAbsorptionModel attribute to get the current settings of the Facility's atmosphere attributes.
Atmosphere_RM */Facility/Perth GetValue AtmosAbsorptionModel
AtmosAbsorptionModel = ITU-R_P676-5
AtmosAbsorptionModel.UserComment = ITU-R P676-5 gaseous absorption model
AtmosAbsorptionModel.UseApproxMethod = true
AtmosAbsorptionModel.UseSeasonalRegional = true
