Drag setup 95% - 50% Space Weather file

[AlessandroV]

Hi all,
I have a question about drag force and the SpaceWeather-All-v1.2.txt file.
The solar cycle data, in that file corresponds to what kind of percentile?
I mean 50, 95, …?
Is it possible to choose this value?

Thank you very much for your time and help.
Kind regards

Hi @AlessandroV

@AlessandroV

You can fin answer to your question on the Space Weather Data documention. It looks like the 50th-percentil values are used for prediction…

@AlessandroV

Is it possible to choose this value?

No, it isn’t. Changing the percentil is only possible with MSAFE space weather data because the format provides the different percentiles.
Because CSSI data (i.e., SpaceWeather-All-v1.2.txt) doesn’t provide the different percentiles, you can’t change it.

Best regards,
Bryan
