No problems, this is just a general information request on the behavior of a couple of classes. I am going to be creating an Ephemeris
object from a list of time/position/velocity/covariance values that I am generating from raw orbit data and a custom kalman filtering process. My raw data set covers approximately 24 hours at 30 second intervals. The only issue is, there are a few places in my data where I have small gaps (ranging from 30 seconds to about 10 minutes in the worst case) because of bad/nonexistent raw GPS information.
I just wanted to ask - can the Ephemeris
class handle interpolating between uneven time gaps? And assuming extremely accurate orbit data for the given data points, about how much bigger would a time gap have to be than the default 30 seconds to start causing issues in satellite position accuracy?
