Summary: The information written on the disk is: n,m,x,y where x and y are the potential coefficients. The format of the record for the potential coefficients is 2I3,2D19.12. The following constants are to be used with these potential coefficients: a = 6378137 m GM = 3986004.36 x 10^^8 m^^3/s^^2 _ The C2,0 coefficient is in the same tidal system as the GEM-T2 potential coefficient model, i.e., in the tide free system.
