Class SHMFormatReader

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    DataLoader

    public class SHMFormatReader
    extends PotentialCoefficientsReader
    Reader for the SHM gravity field format.

    This format was used to describe the gravity field of EIGEN models published by the GFZ Potsdam up to 2003. It was then replaced by ICGEM format. The SHM format is described in Potsdam university website.

    The proper way to use this class is to call the GravityFieldFactory which will determine which reader to use with the selected gravity field file.
