New Release Announcement - EOMER v2.0.7
Version 2.0.7 of the EOMER 2D/3D orbit and swath visualisation tool has been released and can be downloaded here.
Release Notes are available here.
User registration is required. Please find detailed instructions here.
New Features
- Interoperability with other tools / file standards:
- Import / Export of ESOV NG Swath Control Files
- Support for Swath Definition File (fixed swath and nominal attitude sections)
- Support for CCSDS orbit files OEM, OPM, OMM
- Improvements to Report:
- Added the longitude of ascending node for each visibility pass
