The list of available command line tools and the latest version is given below:

Tool  Version Mission Description
CADU-convert 5.1 Generic CADU-convert is a Perl script to transform CADUs
NAVIGATOR 1.1.0 Generic NAVatt synthetIc generATOR (NAVIGATOR) is a CLI tool that creates NAVATT packets based on a provided Orbit and Attitude
ZoneOverPass Tool 2.5 Generic It calculates the visibility passes of a given satellite or instrument swath over a set of zones of interest or ground sites, within a given time interval
Instrument Collocation Tools 1.1.2 Generic Set of tools to calculate the collocation (overlap) opportunities between two instrument swaths over a region of interest, within a certain time difference. Also provide the minimum and maximum time difference for the first revisit opportunity.
GroundSitePass Tool 1.3 Generic It calculates the visibility passes of the instrument swath over a set of ground site or ground site, within a given time interval. Additional information related to the ground site is calculated (e.g. distance to the ground-track, Sun incidence angle)
AeolusGroundSitePass Tool 1.4.1 Aeolus

It calculates the visibility passes of the ALADIN instrument swath over a set of ground sites, within a given time interval. Additional information related to the ground site is calculated (e.g. distance from the site to the middle of the swath)

AeolusBalloonPass 1.1.1 Aeolus

It calculates the visibility passes of the ALADIN instrument swath for all balloon positions in a balloon trajectory file, within a given time interval. Additional information is calculated (e.g. time difference between the measurement and the pass)

TrajectoryOverPass 1.2 Generic

It calculates the visibility passes of a given satellite instrument swath over a trajectory position file, within a given time interval. Additional information is calculated (e.g. time difference between the measurement and the pass)

GroundSiteNetworkOverpass Tool

1.2 Generic It calculates the visibility passes of a given satellite instrument swath over a set or network of ground sites, within a given time interval. Additional information related to the ground site as well as statistics on the overall network is calculated (e.g. distance from the site to the middle of the swath)
Transponder Pass Tools 1.6 Cryosat-2 Set of tools to calculate the ground-track points for a set of of visibility time segments over a zone or transponder location, as well as information associated to the point of closest approach within each pass over a transponder
Station Passes Tool 2.0 Generic

Set of tools to calculate the visibility passes of a given satellite over a set of ground stations

RevisitTime 1.3 Generic

It calculates, for a set of satellites, the min/max/avg revisit time of each grid point

OrbitSwath2KML 2.3.5 Generic It displays the contour of an instrument swath for a given orbit or UTC time range
UTC2LonLat 1.4 SMOS It calculates, for given time,  the longitude and latitude of the sub-satellite point and the Sun angles in instrument frame
UTC2Swath 1.1 Cryosat/SMOS It calculates the longitude and latitude of the swath points defining the instantaneous footprint at a given time
OSV Data Calculator  1.4.2 Generic

It calculates for a given time period, the orbit state vectors and keplerian elements. It also provides geodetic coordinates and other relevant information.

GetCompareANXData 1.8.1 Generic

It calculates / compares orbit data at ANX from input orbit files

GetCompareOSVData 1.0.2 Generic

It calculates / compares orbit state vector data at given time step from input orbit files

TLE2ORBPRE

TLE2ORBRES

1.4

1.2

Generic It generates a Predicted Orbit Flle (XML EO Ground Segment) from a given Two Line Elements (TLE) file.
OEM_XML2OrbitFile 1.0 CHEOPS It converts an OEM XML orbit file into an EO ORBPRE XML Orbit Predicted File
Attitude from Star Tracker File Calculator 1.0 Cryosat It calculates attitude data (expressed as quaternions and pitch, roll and yaw angles) from a given Cryosat-2 Star Tracker File
Sun Angles Calculator 1.1.1 Generic Set of tools to calculate relevant Sun angles and eclipse flag, either for a given time interval at a given time step or for a subset of orbits, jumping in time.
Moon Angles Calculator 1.3 Generic Set of tools to calculate relevant Moon angles and eclipse flag, either for a given time interval at a given time step or for a subset of orbits, jumping in time.
SCEclipseSZACalc 1.10 Generic It calculates the SC eclipse entry/exit times and the SZA up/down times
StarTrackerConstraints 2.0 Generic It calculates when Sun/Moon in Exclusion angle of Star Tracker
