Facility/Place/Target: Terrain Info

The ground slope information of based on the data input in the basic properties of the object. This data is not derived from terrain specified via DTED. The slope and azimuth are always reported in the topocentric frame.

Type: Fixed data

Availability: Reports

Name Description
LocalHorizontal Local horizontal frame. This frame has the Z axis aligned with the inward surface normal direction (minus Z is up) and the X axis constrained toward the local north direction.
Topocentric This frame has the Z axis aligned with the outward surface normal direction and the X axis constrained toward the local north direction.
CBF A coordinate system attached to the central body and rotating with it. The z-axis is nominally along the rotation axis.
