Workspace Variable rte_pos2

A second geographical position to define the geometry for
radiative transfer calculations.

This variable is used when the propagation path is defined by two
positions, instead of a position (rte_pos) and a line-of-sight
(rte_los). That is, this variable basically replaces rte_los
for the cases of consideration. In practice, rte_los is determined
by finding the propagation path between rte_pos and rte_pos2.

As rte_pos with the exception that a "latitude" must also be
specified for 1D. This is the angular distance to rte_pos, where
this distance is defined as the 2D-"latitude".

Usage: See above. 

Units: [ m, degree, degree ]
