Moves rte_pos and rte_los forward to the target altitude.

The method gives the rte_pos and rte_los at the target altitude when forward-propagating the original rte_pos and rte_los geometrically.

There is also sensor_pos_losForwardToAltitude(). The WSM IntersectionGeometricalWithAltitude() performs the same operation with sensor_pos and sensor_los as input.
