'org.orekit.estimation' is not a package

Hello,
I have installed the orekit python wrapper, but this estimation import will not work for some reason. I’ve also tried with jpype as well, which will not work either.

Additionally, I’m quite new to this, I can’t get it set up using java either. Does anyone have the detailed steps? I’m installing the orekit-data zip, I have the orekit folder installed, I’m not sure where to put my java file so that I can run them with orekit imports. Any help would be great for either of these cases.
Thank you!

Hello,

Can you provide your source code, or at least a minimal example?

Are you planning to use Orekit from Java or from Python?

If you are using Orekit Python, there is no need for downloading java files, only the orekit-data.zip. Instead, you have to install the Python package via conda or mamba, I recommend you follow the basic tutorials, e.g. examples/1_The_Basics.ipynb · master · Orekit Labs / Orekit Python Wrapper · GitLab

I’m planning to use it for java now, had a change in plans. I understand python is simpler, but I’m trying to run a pre-existing java file.

Hi @uyoi,

Quickest way is to add the orekit jar file to the build path of your Java project within your IDE.
You can also make your project a Maven project and add Orekit as a dependency
