% Compare the magnetic field models. Compares the dipole and IGRF models in a polar orbit. Also computes the variations from the dipole of the Mead-Fairfield model. Things to try: look at other orbits, such as an equatorial orbit, for comparison. Also try different numbers of coefficients in the IGRF model. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ See also Plot2D, JD2000, PltOrbit, RVFromKepler, BDipole, MagField, BMF ------------------------------------------------------------------------ % ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright 1999-2003, 2007, 2016 Princeton Satellite Systems, Inc.
