Satellite Scenario Viewer, specified as a scalar satelliteScenarioViewer object.1

Ellipsoidal height of the camera in meters, specified as a numeric scalar. satelliteScenarioViewer objects use the WGS84 reference ellipsoid. For more information about ellipsoidal height, see Geodetic Coordinates.

If you specify the height so that the camera is level with or below the surface of the Earth, then the camheight function sets the height to a value one meter above the surface.
