VO Covariance

Set or modify Covariance graphics properties

Syntax

VO <VehObjectPath> Covariance {CovarOption} <Parameters>

Description

The VO Covariance commands enables you to define the graphical display of a 3D ellipsoid.

Valid values for {CovarOption} <Parameters> are:

{CovarOption} <Parameters> Description
Scale <ScaleValue> Uses the specified scale value to directly size the contour. Enter a value between 0.0 and 5.1
UseProbability <ProbValue> Uses the specified percentage of probability encompassed by the ellipsoid to indirectly size the contour. Enter a value between 0.0 and 99.9
Basic {AttrOption} <AttrValue> [{AttrOption2} <AttrValue2>...] To turn on the display of covariance graphics and assign graphics attributes. {AttrOption} and <AttrValue> are described in the table below.
Intervals {On | Off} Turn on or off the use of time intervals during which covariance graphics will display.
Load "<Filepath\Filename.int>" Clear the list of display intervals for covariance graphics, and replace them with the intervals specified in the interval file.
Import "<TimeComponent>" Add the intervals specified in the Interval or Interval List "<TimeComponent>" to the list of display intervals for covariance graphics.

For information about "<TimeComponent>" see Component Specification.

Add <NumIntervals> "<StartTime>" "<StopTime>" ["<StartTime>" "<StopTime>"...] [{AttrOption} <AttrValue>...] Add time intervals during which covariance graphics will display to the list of existing intervals and assign their graphics attributes. {AttrOption} and <AttrValue> are described in the table below.
Replace <NumIntervals> "<StartTime>" "<StopTime>" ["<StartTime>" "<StopTime>"...] [{AttrOption} <AttrValue>...] Replace existing interval list with input intervals. {AttrOption} and <AttrValue> are described in the table below.
Remove "<StartTime>" "<StopTime>" Remove a single interval.
Clear Remove all intervals and turn interval graphics off.
IntervalDefault {AttrOption} <AttrValue> [{AttrOption2} <AttrValue2>...] Set the default attributes, or the display attributes that will be assigned to times between the specified time intervals. {AttrOption} and <AttrValue> are described in the table below.

{AttrOption} <AttrValue> can be:

{AttrOption} <AttrValue> Description
Show {On | Off} Set the option On or Off.
Color {Color} For valid {Color} options see Common Options.
LineWidth <Width> Indicate a pixel width value between 1.0 and 10.0.
Translucency <Value> Enter a value between 0 and 100 for the transparency.

Example

VO */Satellite/attSat Covariance Scale 4.96

VO */Satellite/attSat Covariance Scale UseProbability 34.12

VO */Satellite/attSat Covariance Basic Show On Color blue LineWidth 4

VO */Satellite/attSat Covariance Basic Show On Color yellow Translucency 50

To turn on the use of intervals for covariance graphics:

VO */Satellite/attSat Covariance Intervals On

To turn off the use of intervals:

VO */Satellite/attSat Covariance Intervals Off

VO */Satellite/CovarSat Covariance IntervalDefault Show Off Color blue LineWidth 2

To remove all intervals:

VO */Satellite/attSat Covariance Intervals Clear

To replace the existing intervals with the intervals in the Target1.int file:

VO */Satellite/attSat Covariance Intervals Load "c:\stk\project1\Target1.int"

To add two 1 hour and 20 minute intervals--one beginning at 12:38 a.m. and ending at 1:58 a.m. and the other beginning at 5:38 a.m. and ending at 6:58 a.m.:

VO */Satellite/attSat Covariance Intervals Add 2 "1 Jan 2001 00:38:00.00" "1 Jan 2001 01:58:00.00" "1 Jan 2001 05:38:00.00" "1 Jan 2001 06:58:00.00"

To remove the interval beginning at 12:40 a.m. and ending at 1:00 a.m.:

VO */Satellite/attSat Covariance Intervals Remove "1 Jan 2001 00:40:00.00" "1 Jan 2001 01:00:00.00"

VO */Satellite/attSat Covariance Intervals Replace 2 "1 Jan 2001 00:38:00.00" "1 Jan 2001 01:58:00.00" "1 Jan 2001 05:38:00.00" "1 Jan 2001 06:58:00.00"

To add two 1 hour and 20 minute intervals that will display as a green line of 3 pixel width--one beginning at 12:38 a.m. and ending at 1:58 a.m. and the other beginning at 5:38 a.m. and ending at 6:58 a.m.

VO */Satellite/attSat Covariance Intervals Add 2 "1 Jan 2001 00:38:00.00" "1 Jan 2001 01:58:00.00" "1 Jan 2001 05:38:00.00" "1 Jan 2001 06:58:00.00" Color green LineWidth 3

To add two 1 hour and 20 minute display intervals for covariance graphics that will display as a magenta line of 2 pixel width--one beginning at 2:38 a.m. and ending at 3:58 a.m. and the other beginning at 7:38 a.m. and ending at 8:58 a.m.

VO */Satellite/attSat Covariance Intervals Add 2 "1 Jan 2001 02:38:00.00" "1 Jan 2001 03:58:00.00" "1 Jan 2001 07:38:00.00" "1 Jan 2001 08:58:00.00" Color magenta LineWidth 2
