Parameters:

• ray_path (~pyarts3.arts.ArrayOfPropagationPathPoint, optional) – A list path points making up a propagation path. Defaults to self.ray_path. [OUT]

• atm_field (~pyarts3.arts.AtmField, optional) – An atmospheric field in ARTS, this is the main atmospheric data structure in ARTS. Defaults to self.atm_field. [IN]

• surf_field (~pyarts3.arts.SurfaceField, optional) – The surface field. Defaults to self.surf_field. [IN]

• lat (~pyarts3.arts.Numeric, optional) – A single latitude. Defaults to self.lat. [IN]

• lon (~pyarts3.arts.Numeric, optional) – A single longitude. Defaults to self.lon. [IN]

• max_stepsize (~pyarts3.arts.Numeric, optional) – A control parameter for stepping through layers in ray tracing. Defaults to self.max_stepsize. [IN]
