Overview
Dorado is a proposed space mission for ultraviolet follow-up of gravitational wave events. This repository contains a simple target of opportunity observation planner for Dorado.Features:* Global: jointly and globally solves the problems of tiling (the set of telescope boresight orientations and roll angles) and the scheduling (which tile is observed at what time), rather than solving each sub-problem one at a time* Optimal: generally solves all the way to optimality, rather than finding merely a "good enough" solution* Fast: solve an entire orbit in about 5 minutes* General: does not depend on heuristics of any kind* Flexible: problem is formulated in the versatile framework of mixed integer programming
