Uncertainty Specification and Analysis for Thermosphere Observations

The software can specify the uncertainty of thermosphere density observations derived from accelerometer and GNSS tracking data. The user must specify the accuracy of input parameters describing the measurements, satellite geometry, surface properties, atmospheric conditions, and radiation fluxes. These uncertainties are propagated to the uncertainty of density observations. The software will generate several visualizations to assess and analyze the accuracy of the density observations. The software is implemented in Matlab and uses several external libraries linked via Matlab's MEX functionality.
