## COTRANS

[Next Routine] [List of Routines]

    procedure: cotrans, name_in, name_out [, time]

    Purpose: geophysical coordinate transformations

             GEI<-->GSE;
             GSE<-->GSM;
             GSM<-->SM;
             GEI<-->GEO;
             interpolates the spinphase, right ascension, declination
             updates coord_sys atribute of output tplot variable.

    inputs

       name_in 	... data in the input coordinate system (t-plot variable name,
                                                            or array)
       name_out    ... variable name for output            (t-plot variable name,
                                                            or array)
       time        ... optional input: array of times for input values, if provided
                       then the first parameter is an array, and the second
                       parameter is a named variable to contain the output array.

    keywords:
       TRANSFORMATIONS

    	/GEI2GSE

     /GSM2SM
     /SM2GSM

     /GEI2GEO
     /GEO2GEI

     /IGNORE_DLIMITS: set so it won't require the coordinate
    system of the input tplot variable to match the coordinate
    system from which the data is being converted

    Examples:

          cotrans,'tha_fgl_gse','tha_fgl_gsm',/GSE2GSM

       /IGNORE_DLIMITS: Dlimits normally used to determine if coordinate
       system is correct, to decide if position needs offset, or to
       stop incorrect transforms.  This option will stop this behavior.

    Examples:
          gse2sse,'tha_state_pos','slp_sun_pos_gse','slp_lun_pos_gse','tha_state_pos_sse'
          gse2sse,'tha_state_pos_sse','slp_sun_pos_gse','slp_lun_pos_gse','tha_state_pos_gse',/sse2gse,/ignore_dlimits

    Notes:
       #1 SSE coordinate Z-axis is generally not exactly parallel to ecliptic north,
          as the moon will not always be in the ecliptic plane, and thus the moon->sun line
          will not always lie in the ecliptic plane.
       #2 If dlimit-labeled position passed in without /ignore_dlimits,
          input will be offset to account for relative position of frames of reference.
       #3 If dlimit-labeled velocity passed in without /ignore_dlimits,
          input will be offset to account for relative motion of frames of reference
       #4 If dlimit-labeled acceleration passed in without /ignore_dlimits,
          warning will be raise, but offset will not be applied automatically
       #5 Uses tvector_rotate, and sse_matrix_make to perform the rotation.
          tvector_rotate will also interpolate the rotation matrix onto the time-grid of the input.
          Interpolation done using quaterions and the spherical linear interpolation algorithm (SLERP)

## HDZ2GEO

[Previous Routine] [Next Routine] [List of Routines]

    procedure: hdz2geo

    Purpose: Coordinate transformation between HDZ coordinates & GEO coordinates

         HDZ is defined as:

           H = horizontal field strength, in the plane formed by Z and GEO graphic north
           D = field strength in the Z x X direction in nT
           Z = downward field strength

         H should be a projection onto a basis vector pointing north from station in nT
         D should be a projection onto a basis vector perpendicular to H in the horizontal plane.

         Total field strength should be sqrt(H^2+D^2+Z^2) not sqrt(H^2+Z^2)
         D must be in nT not degrees

         GEO is defined as:
             X = Vector parallel to vector pointing outward at the intersection of the equatorial plane and the 0 degree longitudinal meridean(Greenwich Meridean)
             Y = Z x X
             Z = Vector parallel to orbital Axis of Earth Pointing northward.

    inputs:

      data_in:
        Name of input tplot variable to be transformed, or Nx3 array of data for transformation. If no tplot variable is specific latitude and longitude must be set.
      data_out:
        Name of tplot variable in which to store output.  If this is a named variable and not a string, output data will instead be returned in variable.
      latitude: latitude of the HDZ station, must be set if data_in is not tplot variable, or latitude and longitude not stored in dlimit.data_att or dlimit.cdf.vatt
      longitude: longitude of the HDZ station, must be set if data_in is not tplot variable, or latitude and longitude not stored in dlimit.data_att or dlimit.cdf.vatt
      geo2hdz: If set, performs inverse transformation from GEO to HDZ
      error: Set to named variable that will return 1 if an error occurs and 0 otherwise
      rotation_matrix:  Returns the rotation matrix that will be used to transform

    keywords:

       /SSE2GSE inverse transformation

       /IGNORE_DLIMITS: Dlimits normally used to determine if coordinate
       system is correct, to decide if position needs offset, or to
       stop incorrect transforms.  This option will stop this behavior.

    Examples:
      hdz2geo,hdz_arr_in,geo_arr_out,latitude=60.4,longitude=173.6
      hdz2geo,'in_tvar_name_hdz','out_tvar_name_geo'
      hdz2geo,'in_tvar_name_geo','out_tvar_name_hdz',/geo2hdz  ;inverse transformation

    Notes:
       #1 HDZ coordinates only make sense relative to a location, assumedly a ground station(gmag)

       #2 Specific latitude and longitude keywords must be set if:
        (1) data_in is not a tplot variable name
        -OR-
        (2) tplot variable named by data_in does not specific site_latitude & site_longitude in dlimits

       #3 If latitude or longitude keywords are set, these values will be used, not dlimit values.

       #4 This transformation is a first order approximation.  It treats the earth as if it is a true sphere, ignoring
       distortions due to the fact that the earth is actually an oblate spheroid.

## SPG2SSL

[Previous Routine] [Next Routine] [List of Routines]

    procedure: spg2ssl

    Purpose: coordinate transformation

             SPG<-->SSL;

    inputs

    	name_thx_xxx_in 	... data in the input coordinate system (t-plot variable name)
       name_thx_xxx_out    ... name for output  (t-plot variable name)

    keywords:
       TRANSFORMATIONS

       /SSL2SPG inverse transformation

       /IGNORE_DLIMITS if the specified from coord is different from the
    coord system labeled in the dlimits structure of the tplot variable
    setting this keyword prevents an error

       /NAME_INPUT : Always required; this argument is the name of a tplot
         variable to use as the input data.

       /NAME_OUTPUT: Always required; this argument is the name of a tplot
         variable to receive the output.
