The following new features/requirements have been implemented (see section "Known Problems" at the end of this document or of each of the SUMs to check limitations of the current release):


4 CLOSED ANOMALIES (SOFTWARE PROBLEMS)

The following Software problems have been fixed:

ANR Nr. Description
413 Target:targetRangeRate may fail in some specific contition
415 Definition of time_id validitiy interval to be clarified in SUMs
445 Time transformation functions introduce UTC-UT1 correlation different from zero if UTC=UT1 in all records of TimeCorrelation object
449 Swath::zoneVisTime returns an error if orbit range includes any of the last two orbits in Predicted Orbit File.
450 Wrong result from Swath::zoneVisTime when using a multi-point swath.
452 Swath generation (Swath::genSwath) fails: Could not propagate the state vector
453 OrbitId::osvCompute: when init mode = AUTO, it is not clear if interpolation or propagation is done. Doc update
454 OrbitId (Constructor with input files). Interpolator mode: when two files are given as inputs and they partially overlap, "fresh" (most recently generated shall be used)
461 Increase number of decimal digits from 6 to 9 when writing quaternions in attitude file
462 Segmentation fault when computing OSV for the stop time of restituted orbit file
463 If the source frame in the attitude_id is set to Earth-Fixed, Target::targetInter returns an error (target not found)
467 Segmentation fault / wrong result when num_harmonics < 2 in OSF
479 target::extraMain does not compute the "satellite to target topocentric" parameters
