AND draw a one skip ionosphere line between stations #66

Open hcarter333 opened 1 year ago

hcarter333 commented 1 year ago

Use earth_mid.py and a typical ionospheric F2 height of 300 km to draw two lines between stations that demonstrate a one hop skip.

It looks like having a "0." altitude on any point in a line leads to things not behaving well. The ionosphere skips aren't nearly tall enough.

ionogram date and time curl --insecure "https://lgdc.uml.edu/common/DIDBGetValues?ursiCode=DB049&charName=foF2&fromDate=2007.06.25%2000:00:00&toDate=2007.06.26%2000:00:00

this also works

import requests
iodata=requests.get("https://lgdc.uml.edu/common/DIDBGetValues?ursiCode=DB049&charName=foF2&fromDate=2007.06.25%2000:00:00&toDate=2007.06.26%2000:00:00")
print(iodata.text)

use data to set skip height image

I think our next step will be to split the string that containes line feeds (\n) on the line feed, and then parse through line by line till we find one that starts with "#Time" and then, on the enxt line, start pulling out data.
