== Description ==
This program augments the nominals file by appending the nominal inertial
space position differences between the current image and up
to two images before and after. This information is used to
constrain the solution so that the spacecraft position solution does not deviate too much from a dynamically
realistic state. This program also allows for different mission phases to have different "sigmas" via [[DYNAMICS.TXT]].

A typical ETLIM= record is:
{{{
ETLM= 1800, 1.D-6
}}}

ETLIM= gives
a maximum time difference in seconds that limits the neighboring
images to be used. This is followed by an estimate of the velocity uncertainty that
goes into an uncertainty estimate included in the added records.

{{{
FRAME= ['dxR_FRAME', 'Dxr_FRAME', 'BOD_FRAME']

FRAME= specifies how to interpret the sigmas in
spacecraft position found in the nominals file.

 * '''dxR_FRAME''' uses the radial direction (R) as prime for the third component with the second component being the cross track direction (X) and the first component, roughly in the downtrack direction completing the right-handed coordinate system. This is used in orbital operations around large bodies, where the radial component is well known from the Doppler data.

 * '''Dxr_FRAME''' is used during approach where the downtrack velocity is best known. The "radial" (impact parameter) direction is crossed with the downtrack to give the crosstrack direction.

 * '''BOD_FRAME''' simply uses the components in the body-fixed frame, generally with equal uncertainties in each direction.

The VSIG= record has three components:
{{{
VSIG= 0.100, 0.100, 0.040
}}}

VSIG= allows the user to change the position sigmas from
those in the original nominals file. The record in the sample, sets the uncertainties in the three components to 100 m, 100 m and
40 m respectively. If, during another mission phase, these sigmas
change, another VSIG= record would be added to affect subsequent
nominals files.

The PSIG= record has three components:
{{{
PSIG= 0.0003, 0.0003, 0.0005
}}}
PSIG= allows the user to change the pointing sigmas in the
nominal files. The three components refer to rotations about the
three camera axes. The sample shows the approximate values expected for OSIRIS_REx with a larger twist uncertainty since there is only one star tracker.

Description

This program augments the nominals file by appending the nominal inertial space position differences between the current image and up to two images before and after. This information is used to constrain the solution so that the spacecraft position solution does not deviate too much from a dynamically realistic state. This program also allows for different mission phases to have different "sigmas" via DYNAMICS.TXT.
