Get Started withAerospace Toolbox

Aerospace Toolboxprovides standards-based tools and functions for analyzing the motion, mission, and environment of aerospace vehicles. It includes aerospace math operations, coordinate system and spatial transformations, and validated environment models for interpreting flight data. The toolbox also includes 2D and 3D visualization tools and standard cockpit instruments for observing vehicle motion.

For flight vehicles, you can import Data Compendium (Datcom) files directly into MATLAB^®to represent vehicle aerodynamics. The aerodynamics can be combined with reference parameters to define your aircraft configuration and dynamics for control design and flying qualities analysis.

Aerospace Toolboxlets you design and analyze scenarios consisting of satellites and ground stations. You can propagate satellite trajectories from orbital elements or two-line element sets, load in satellite and constellation ephemerides, perform mission analysis tasks such as line-of-sight access, and visualize the scenario as a ground track or globe.
