我有卫星和地面观测者的纬度,经度和高度。我正在尝试计算从地面看卫星的卫星天顶角和卫星方位角。
我目前正在尝试使用astropy
解决此问题。 describes文档介绍了如何计算太阳的天顶角和方位角。
我试图将卫星垂直放置在观察者上方,以使天顶角应为0°(或仰角为90°)。
In [41]: ground = astropy.coordinates.EarthLocation(lat=3*u.deg, lon=5*u.deg)
In [42]: sat = astropy.coordinates.EarthLocation.from_geodetic(3*u.deg, 5*u.deg, 700*u.km)
但是,显然.transform_to(AltAz(...))
并不代表我的意思,因为答案不是我想要的:
In [43]: print(sat.get_itrs().transform_to(AltAz(location=ground)))
<AltAz Coordinate (obstime=None, location=(6345216.684243768, 555134.5274868822, 331574.3153428908) m, pressure=0.0 hPa, temperature=0.0 deg_C, relative_humidity=0, obswl=1.0 micron): (az, alt, distance) in (deg, deg, m)
(314.96287134, 63.2970069, 773970.24385554)>
我希望仰角接近90°,而不是63°。
pyorbital中也有一些例程,但是似乎没有包含我要查找的例程。
我相信使用pyephem
也应该可行,只是这似乎希望我从目录中获得卫星信息。我已经有了纬度,经度和纬度。
我也看过pyproj
,但我认为这仅适用于大地水准面上的物体。
如何计算从地面观察到的卫星的高度和方位角?
答案 0 :(得分:1)
稍微整理一下输入内容:
from astropy import units as u
from astropy.coordinates import AltAz, EarthLocation
ground = EarthLocation.from_geodetic(lat=3*u.deg, lon=5*u.deg, height=0*u.km)
sat = EarthLocation.from_geodetic(lat=3*u.deg, lon=5*u.deg, height=700*u.km)
result = sat.get_itrs().transform_to(AltAz(location=ground))
print(result)
哪个会产生预期的90度:
<AltAz Coordinate (obstime=None, location=(6345.21668424, 555.13452749, 331.57431534) km, pressure=0.0 hPa, temperature=0.0 deg_C, relative_humidity=0.0, obswl=1.0 micron): (az, alt, distance) in (deg, deg, km)
(89.99999672, 89.99991123, 700.)>
答案 1 :(得分:0)
您可以从pyorbital
获得此信息。相关功能为get_observer_look
。由于某种原因,它需要时间,并且显然需要所有输入都是ndarray对象。当方位角定义不正确时(例如,天顶角为零时),它会发出警告。但这确实有效:
In [50]: import pyorbital.orbital
In [51]: print(pyorbital.orbital.get_observer_look(atleast_1d(1), atleast_1d(1), atleast_1d(700), datetime.datetime.now(), atleast_1d(1), atleast_1d(1), atleast_1d(1)))
(array([261.11934085]), array([89.99999915]))
In [53]: print(pyorbital.orbital.get_observer_look(atleast_1d(10), atleast_1d(0), atleast_1d(700), datetime.datetime.now(), atleast_1d(0), atleast_1d(0), atleast_1d(0.1)))

az_ = np.arctan(-top_e / top_s)
(array([270.]), array([25.73173269]))
In [54]: print(pyorbital.orbital.get_observer_look(atleast_1d(10), atleast_1d(0), atleast_1d(700), datetime.datetime.now(), atleast_1d(0.1), atleast_1d(0.1), atleast_1d(0.1)))
