EarthOrientationParameterTimeSeries

Computes a timeSeries (GPS time) of Earth Orientation Parameter (EOP). The instrument file (MISCVALUES) contains the elements at each epoch in the following order:

• $x_p$ [rad]
• $y_p$ [rad]
• $s_p$ [rad]
• $UT1-UTC$ [seconds]
• length of day (LOD) [seconds]
• $X$ [rad]
• $Y$ [rad]
• $S$ [rad]

The values are in situ values with all corrections and models applied. The time series can be used to precompute Earth rotation with a low temporal resolution (e.g. 10 min) and reuse the file in earthRotation:file to interpolate the data to the needed epochs (e.g. to rotate orbit data). As some Earth rotation models are quite slow this can accelerate the computation.
