Parameters:

• ray_path (ArrayOfPropagationPathPoint, optional) – A list path points making up a propagation path. See ray_path, defaults to self.ray_path [OUT]

• atm_field (AtmField, optional) – An atmospheric field in ARTS. See atm_field, defaults to self.atm_field [IN]

• surf_field (SurfaceField, optional) – The surface field. See surf_field, defaults to self.surf_field [IN]

• lat (Numeric, optional) – A single latitude. See lat, defaults to self.lat [IN]

• lon (Numeric, optional) – A single longitude. See lon, defaults to self.lon [IN]

• max_stepsize (Numeric, optional) – A control parameter for stepping through layers in ray tracing. See max_stepsize, defaults to self.max_stepsize [IN]
