Coordinate Systems
Represent aircraft and spacecraft motion and orientation
Coordinate systems are an important part of aerospace systems. Use the coordinate system functions to standardize units across your model, transform spatial representations and coordinate systems, describe the behavior of three- and six-degrees-of-motion bodies, and perform common aerospace math operations.
