central body and rotating with it. The z-axis is nominally along
the rotation axis.

Real Number |
Time. |
| Lat |
LatitudeUnit |
Real Number |
The detic latitude (i.e., angle between the detic
subpoint's surface normal vector and the XY plane.) |
| Lon |
LongitudeUnit |
Real Number |
The detic longitude (i.e., angle from the X-axis
locating the projection of the detic subpoint's surface normal
vector onto the XY plane.) Longitude increases in the direction
found using the right-hand rule about the Z-axis. |
| Alt |
DistanceUnit |
Real Number |
The altitude value (i.e., magnitude of the relative
position vector between the object and its detic subpoint). |
| Lat Rate |
AngleRateUnit |
Real Number |
The rate of change of the detic latitude. |
| Lon Rate |
AngleRateUnit |
Real Number |
The rate of change of the detic longitude. |
| Alt Rate |
Rate |
Real Number |
The rate of change of the altitude value. |
