Description

The T&E Toolkit Plugin must be installed in order to use this command.

The TE_Contours command generates a contour based on intervals or levels to color the data of an Analysis Object.

Name "<Name>" specifies the name of the contour. This parameter is required.

AnalysisObject "<Name>" is the name of the analysis object. This parameter is required.

The optional Time Constraint "<Value>" specifies the name of a time constraint.

Refer to the following table for the Offset parameters:

<Parameters>Description
Offset "<Value>" Specify the number of meters the contour line is offset vertically from the ephemeris line. The optional <Unit> parameter is used to specify the measurement unit. The default value is 50 m.

OffsetVert can be used in place of Offset; they function identically.

Cannot be used in conjunction with OffsetX, OffsetY, OffsetZ, and OffsetFrame.

OffsetHoriz "<Value>" Specify the number of meters the contour line is offset horizontally from the ephemeris line. The optional <Unit> parameter is used to specify the measurement unit. The default value is 0 m.

Cannot be used in conjunction with OffsetX, OffsetY, OffsetZ, and OffsetFrame.

OffsetX "<Value>" Specify the number of meters the contour line is offset from the X axis. The optional <Unit> parameter is used to specify the measurement unit. The default value is 0 m.

Cannot be used in conjunction with Offset/OffsetVert and OffsetHoriz.

OffsetY "<Value>" Specify the number of meters the contour line is offset from the Y axis. The optional <Unit> parameter is used to specify the measurement unit. The default value is 0 m.

Cannot be used in conjunction with Offset/OffsetVert and OffsetHoriz.

OffsetZ "<Value>" Specify the number of meters the contour line is offset from the Z axis. The optional <Unit> parameter is used to specify the measurement unit. The default value is 0 m.

Cannot be used in conjunction with Offset/OffsetVert and OffsetHoriz.

OffsetFrame "<Value>" Specify the reference frame for the contour line.

Cannot be used in conjunction with Offset/OffsetVert and OffsetHoriz.

LineWidth "<Value>" specifies the width of the contour line. Valid values are 1-10. Default is 3.

For the Intervals keyword, refer to the following table to define the valid parameters.

<Parameters>Description
<Name>,<Color>,...Enter comma separated pairs of name and color.

For the Levels keyword, refer to the following table to define the valid parameters.

<Parameters>Description
<Value>,<Unit>,<Color>,...Enter comma separated pairs of level value and color. The <Unit> parameter is optional.
DataElement "[<SourceName> |] <ShortName>"Enter the name of the data element for the value. If the <ShortName> is enough to identify the element then just enter that. Otherwise, include the <SourceName>, followed by the | (bar), before the <ShortName>.
BelowColor "<Color> {On | Off}"

Enter a color. This parameter is optional.

By defining this parameter, an additional level is added that is less than the lowest defined <Value> parameter.

The {On | Off} toggle is only used with the Modify option.

Above "{On | Off}"

Set the above parameter on or off. This parameter is optional.

Setting this parameter to "On" will set the highest defined <Value> parameter as any value above the next highest defined <Value> parameter. This does not add a new level like the BelowColor parameter.

Use the Modify option to change any parameter's value; however, you cannot toggle between Levels and Intervals.

Color may be entered using name, value or %rgb.

Example

TE_Contours * Add Name "Comp1" AnalysisObject "AF385" Intervals "run1,blue,run2,red" Time Constraint "AvailabilityTimeSpan"

TE_Contours * Add Name "Comp2" AnalysisObject "AF385" Levels "0,-16181,11.46 deg,%255255000,0.4 rad,green" DataElement "Latitude" BelowColor "red" Above "On"

TE_Contours * Add Name "Contour2" AnalysisObject "AF3_0385" Levels "1, Yellow, 2, %255000000, 3, Blue" DataElement "AF3_0385_MeasuredTracks_ID.csv | Track_ID"

You can use TETK Connect commands in TETK scenarios for pre-flight planning, post-flight analysis, and to support analysis workflows.

You should not use TETK Connect commands when real-time propagators are creating STK vehicles and using STK features instantaneously. The use of Connect commands in a real-time application requires more computational power than STK can support.

TETK functionality that is commonly referred to as "real-time" is actually an offline analysis mode. In this mode, an STK/TETK scenario is prepared with data that is streamed to a particular time in a mission. The post-flight analysis can be prepared again on demand throughout the mission for the data for each time of request. You can use TETK Connect commands in these scenarios.
