Determine exact EC meeting point #54

Closed Lucalino closed 1 month ago

Lucalino commented 1 month ago

Exact meeting time with EC should be its own segment. It would be great to come up with some code that determines the exact (3sec interval or so) meeting time between HALO and EC.

No. There's exactly one "meeting point" (in the sense that it's the point on the halo track where the distance between HALO and EarthCare was the shortest). This obviously is not an interval (what length should it have?), but a point and thus needs to be modelled as a different data type, e.g. not a segment, but an event, just as it was done in EUREC4A.
