Result files
Since V7.2.2, after each run when using GUI or, for the batch mode, using the "-o" option or, for the Java API using specific methods, both xlsx and csv files will be created with a lot of interesting information.
When using the GUI or the batch mode, the name of the files will include the creation date (an internal mechanism exists to be sure not to write on the same file in case of parallel batch computation). With the GUI mode, it will be possible to save these files later using the "Save Results" button.
The content of a csv file is the same as for the xlsx file. The advantage of a csv format is the fact that it is sometimes easier to use. The xlsx format allows to see in a more ergonomic way (cells formats) the results.
Anyway, the content of such files is for any object studied:
- Norad Id
- Name
- Country
- Perigee altitude of the last TLE (km)
- Apogee altitude of the last TLE (km)
- Inclination of the last TLE (deg)
- Computation date (calendar format) : corresponds to the End of history date
- Shortest reentry date (calendar format)
- Reentry date (calendar format)
- Longest reentry date (calendar format)
- Reentry date error (days)
- Drag a priori S/m (m2/kg)
- Drag refined S/m (m2/kg)
- Drag S/m after orbit determination (m2/kg)
- SRP Refined S/m (m2/kg)
- Amount of semi-major axis maneuvers
- Date(s) of the semi-major axis maneuvers
- Amount of inclination maneuvers
- Date(s) of inclination maneuvers
- Comments about the calculation : OK or error message
An xlsx file looks like this (note that the real values are with a "," symbol as the Excel version is a french one !) …
