Path: SC/Ephem
% Generates a topographic map of the moon using spherical harmonics.
Type RSHMoon for a demo.
This uses Clementine data. The highest harmonic is 72.
If s and c are not entered it will load the lunar surface coefficients
each time is called. You can load the coefficients yourself using
[s,c] = LoadLunarTopography( nH );
Since version 2.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form:
[r, lambda, theta] = RSHMoon( nH, lambda, theta, s, c )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
Inputs
------
nH (1,1) Highest harmonic
lambda (j) Equatorial angle
theta (i) Angle from pole
s (:,:) Normalized sine coefficients
c (:,:) Normalized cosine coefficients
-------
Outputs
-------
r (i,j) Radius
lambda (j) Equatorial angle
theta (i) Angle from pole
