Currently PyLAP uses the empirical International Reference Ionosphere (IRI) model. In an effort to use PyLAP to observe more discrete structures in ionosphere that are otherwise unobservable with IRI, PyLAP is being Integrated with the Physics-based SAMI3 Model of the ionosphere. Along with this there will be an effort to refactor some of the current PyLAP codebase so that it is more readable and usable for anyone using the current system including both professional and citizen scientists.}, year = {2024}, journal = {HamSCI Workshop 2024}, month = {03/2024}, publisher = {HamSCI}, address = {Cleveland, OH}, language = {eng}, }
