Hi Orekit forum!
I would like to know if someone implemented already an attitude provider that follows the GeoMagnetic field.
In ADCS control, it would be a Bdot attitude mode.
Is there any implemented solutions?
I was thinking in creating this custom provider by @Override of the getAttitude() function, considering Declination and Inclination angles (really rough ideas on that).
Any suggestion more than welcome!
Alberto
I am not aware of any such implementation. Contribution welcome!
Perfect.
I created a branch and work from there.

Please tell me if the naming is ok.

Hi @alberto-ferrero,
Could you open an issue on the Gitlab issue tracker saying that you want to implement this new detector ?
Then you’ll get the number of the issue XXX, and you can call your branch issue-XXX.
That being said the name of the branch on your fork does not really matter, you can name it however you want (but please open the issue 
)
Cheers and thanks for the contribution !
