% Load the GEMT1 data. If there is only one output it will output a data structure. GEM is "Goddard Earth Model". GEMT1 dates to 1987. Loads the GEMT1 mat-file. Corrects the c(2,1) and s(2,1) coefficients for consistency with the IERS Terrestrial reference frame -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: gravityModel = LoadGEM( unNorm ) [sO, c, j, mu, a] = LoadGEM( unNorm ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ unNorm If any input here generate unnormalized coefficients ------- Outputs ------- s0 (36,36) S terms s(n,m) where n and m are degree and order of the model. c (36,36) C terms c(n,m) j (36) m = 0 terms mu Spherical gravitational potential a Earth radius or gravityModel (.)
