Result files

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.

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 …
