rte_pos

property Workspace.rte_pos

A geographical position for starting radiative transfer calculations.

This variable gives the observation position for monochromatic pencil beam calculations. Hence, it is the end point of the propagation path.

This variable is a vector with a length equalling the atmospheric dimensionality. The first element is the geometrical altitude. Element 2 is the latitude and element 3 is the longitude.

Usage: See above.

Units: [ m, degree, degree ]

Size: [ atmosphere_dim ]
