Generate a list of OSTk States from a Pandas DataFrame.

Parameters:

  • dataframe (pd.DataFrame) -- Pandas DataFrame containing the orbit data.

  • reference_frame (Frame | None, optional) -- Reference frame of the states in the dataframe.

  • time_column (str | None, optional) -- Name of the column containing the time data in [UTC].

  • position_columns (list[str] | None, optional) -- List of column names containing the position data in [m].

  • velocity_columns (list[str] | None, optional) -- List of column names containing the velocity data in [m/s].

  • attitude_columns (list[str] | None, optional) -- List of column names containing the attitude data in [x, y, z, s] form.

  • angular_velocity_columns (list[str] | None, optional) -- List of column names containing the angular velocity data in [rad/s].

  • mass_column (str | None, optional) -- Name of the column containing the mass data in [kg].

  • drag_coefficient_column (str | None, optional) -- Name of the column containing the drag coefficient data.

  • surface_area_column (str | None, optional) -- Name of the column containing the surface area data in m^2].

  • output_frame (Frame | None, optional) -- Output frame for the states.

Returns:

List of OSTk States.

Return type:

list[State]
