sm_gse

Category

SPAPT

Function

Rotate the default LFM grid in SM coordinates into some more useful geomagnetic coordinate system.

Syntax

GSMField = sm_gse(CoordSys, Scale, Trans_Data, UT_Time, SmField);

Inputs

Name	Type	Default	Description
CoordSys	string	NONE	coordinate system
Scale	scalar	1.0	scale
Trans_Data	scalar	1.0	trans
UT_Time	vector	none	UT time
SmField	field	none	structured mesh

Outputs

Name	Type	Description
GSMField	field	GSM coordinates
DipoleAxis	field	dipole axes

Functional Details

Transforms SM data onto a chosen coordinate system. The output coordinates include GSM, GSE, GEO, or NONE (SM).

CoordSys	has the options NONE, GSM, GSE, GEO.
GSMField	is the rotated output field.
DipoleAxis

The following image is a portion of a network which illustrates the connections of the smgse module. It receives the LFM data from readmhdhdf as the 5th imput. The yrdayhr module provides the UT time as the 4th imput.
