55 // <synopsis>
56 // EarthMagneticUDF defines UDFs (user defined functions) that can be used
57 // in TaQL to convert Measures for earthMagnetics.
58 // Special functions exist to convert to hourangle and azimuth/elevation.
59 // In this way such derived values appear to be ordinary TaQL functions.
60 //
61 // A function is called like:
62 // <srcblock>
63 // meas.em (toref, em, time, pos)
64 // meas.em (toref, em, time, pos)
65 // For example,
66 // meas.em ('J2000', 'IGRF', TIME, [[5d12m, 52deg, 11m], 'WGS84'])
67 // </srcblock>
68 // <ul>
69 // <li>
70 // <src>toref</src> is a single constant string giving the
71 // EarthMagnetic reference type. It is not possible to use IGRF for
72 // the 'toref' type.
73 // <li>
74 // <src>em</src> is a value array followed by the reference type.
75 // Type IGRF is the IGRF, for which no value array should be given.
76 // </ul>
77 // All functions have data type double and unit Tesla.
78 // </synopsis>
79 
80 // <motivation>
81 // It makes it possible to handle measures in TaQL.
