Using oorb

The full path to the OOrb configuration file is specified by

  1. the --conf=CONFIGURATIONFILE command-line parameter
  2. the $OORB_CONF environment variable
  3. the current directory assuming the default name (oorb.conf)

in this order. That is, option #1 overrides #2 which overrides #3. The default configuration file can be found in oorb/main/oorb.conf.

Supported file formats

For observations OOrb currently supports the both current and new MPC formats (.mpc and .mpc3) alongside the • Data Exchange Standard format used by e.g. Pan-STARRS (.des).

For orbits OOrb currently supports OpenOrb's own format (.orb) in addition to the Data Exchange Standard format.
