ORBITWR -- Write Orbit Segment to Text File

Writes orbit segment data to a text file.

See Also: ORBITRD

PARAMETERS

ORBITWR is controlled by the following global parameters:

Name     Prompt                                  Count     Type
FILE     Database File Name                      1-64      Char
ORBIT    Orbit Segment                           0-1       Int
TFILE    Text File                               1-64      Char
RTYP     BRIEF/SHORT/FULL                        4-5       Char

FILE

Specifies the name of the PCIDSK image file which contains the orbit segment to be written to a text file.

 EASI>FILE="filespec"

ORBIT

Specifies the database orbit segment to write to the text file. If ORBIT is not specified, ORBITWR will write the first orbit segment to the text file.

 EASI>ORBIT=i

TFILE

Specifies the name of output text file to write the orbit segment data to.

 EASI>TFILE="textfile"
The text file must not exist before running ORBITWR. If the text file does exist, ORBITWR exits without processing.

RTYP

Specifies the way the ORBIT segment is written to the text file. There are 3 forms that may be defined:

 EASI>RTYP="BRIEF"      | Writes part of header information 
                        | to text file. 
 EASI>RTYP="SHORT"      | Writes header information to text
                          file.
 EASI>RTYP="FULL"       | Writes header and data lines
                          information to text file.
 EASI>RTYP=             | Defaults to "SHORT".

DETAILS

ORBITWR writes orbit information from an orbit segment (ORBIT) on a database file (FILE) to a text file (TILE).

RTYP specifies the customization in reporting orbit information.

TFILE must not exist before running ORBITWR. If TFILE does exist, ORBITWR will exit without processing.

EXAMPLE

Write the orbit information from the first segment on ers1.pix to a new file called pixel.orb.

 EASI>FILE="ers1.pix"
 EASI>ORBIT=                    | defaults to 1st segment
 EASI>TFILE="pixel.orb"
 EASI>RTYP="BRIEF"
 EASI>RUN ORBITWR
The text file orbit.gcp looks like this:

 SatelliteDesc     :               ARDPF             
 SceneID           :               0.0000000l      0
 SatelliteType     : SAR-1
 DateImageTaken    :
 SupSegExist       : FALSE
 FieldOfView       : 1.0000000000000000E+00
 ViewAngle         : 1.7000000000000000E+01
                .
                .
