Add tropospheric modeling for orbit determination #90
Labels
Kind: New feature
This is a proposed new feature
Status: Design
Issue at Design phase of the quality assurance process
Topic: Orbit Determination
High level description
Refer to this IERS Tech Note on the calculations for the tropospheric effects based on wavelength.
This implementation should allow for great level of configuration as it will be the basis for the mission-ready orbit determination.

Requirements
Test plans
The test plan for the inclusion of tropospheric modeling in the orbit determination module should include the following:
In addition to these specific test cases, it is important to ensure that the inclusion of the tropospheric model does not negatively affect the performance of the orbit determination module in other aspects, such as computation time or numerical stability. As such, the test plan should also include a thorough regression testing of the orbit determination module to ensure that no existing functionality is broken.
Design
This is the design section. Each subsection has its own subsection in the quality assurance document.
Algorithm demonstration
If this issue requires a change in an algorithm, it should be described here. This algorithm should be described thoroughly enough to be used as documentation. This section may also simply refer to an algorithm in the literature or in another piece of software that has been validated. The quality of that reference will be determined case by case.
API definition
Define how the Nyx APIs will be affect by this: what are new functions available, do any previous function change their definition, why call these functions by that name, etc.
High level architecture
Document, discuss, and optionally upload design diagram into this section.
Detailed design
The detailed design *will be used in the documentation of how Nyx works.
Feel free to fill out additional QA sections here, but these will typically be determined during the development, including the release in which this issue will be tackled.
