Retrieving Ephemeris from Webgeocal webservices using python #24
Comments
The Webgeocalc API est ici: https://webgeocalc.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html |
There is a command line interface : https://webgeocalc.readthedocs.io/en/stable/cli.html |
@BaptisteCecconi: can we do it easily now that there is a Webgeocalc instance at Paris Observatory? |
yes, that would be a nice project. The ObsParis webgeocalc server is here: http://voparis-webgeocalc.obspm.fr:8080/geocalc/#NewCalculation but only accessible from Obs Paris internal network range (or through the Obs Paris proxy). In the code, we should have a switch to enable the usage of ObsParis' server if it is available (e.g., from tycho), and fallback to NASA or ESA servers if not. |
I have done some processing with voparis-webgeocalc already, for the validation of the Leblanc et al catalogues, so I know it works well. |
The webgeocalc server is also used in https://jupiter-probability-tool.obspm.fr/ which is written in python/flask. |
We need to be able to use Webgeocalc webservice to retrieve ephemeris data.
In python, it is very easy, so I propose got write a python module to access webgeocalc, and use the IDL
spawn
