Workspace Method iyCalc

Description

A single monochromatic pencil beam calculation.

Performs monochromatic radiative transfer calculations for the
specified position (rte_pos) and line-of-sight (rte_pos).
See iy and associated variables for format of output.

Please note that Jacobian type calculations not are supported.
For this use yCalc.

No sensor characteristics are applied. These are most easily
incorporated by using yCalc
