| Description: The lat_long_method is used with the attributes start_latitude, stop_latitude, start_longitude and stop_longitude. For most observations these parameters would be multivalued. lat_long_method is used to characterize the start and stop latitude and longitude. The possible values are: 'center' indicating the latitude and longitude values are those at the center of the field of view at the beginning and end of the observation. 'median' indicating the latitude and longitude values are the median values at the beginning and end of the observation. 'mean' indicating the latitude and longitude values are the mean values at the beginning and end of the observation. |
