This algorithm will accept a Latitude, Longitude and Altitude location as well as a specific universal coordinated time. It will use this information and calculate the position of the moon in a local coordinate frame (az and alt aka az and el).Example Function Call:[Az El] = LunarAzEl('1991/05/19... Platforms: Matlab

Based on the Two line elements(TLE) - Input from the user, the program calculates the time and the date of the satellite pass. Prints out Azimuth and Elevation & plots it too. Platforms: Matlab

Using this script, you can generate a set of data regarding Sun Azimuth Positions at various instants of time for any location on Earth. This data can be used in many applications, like, in determination of orientation of any plane's azimuth from True North.The syntax is 'sun_azimuth_data' (no... Platforms: Matlab

In 1975, Vincenty published a rapidly converging algorithm for computing the distance between points on an ellipsoidal earth. The algorithm is precise to within a few millimeters. Since then, his algorithm has since seen significant implementation in geodesy and engineering. After adjusting the... Platforms: PHP
