sun_position

Solar position calculator with true-tracking and backtracking options

Purpose

The purpose of this code is to provide R users the capability to calculate solar position given a latitude angle. This work is based partially on my Solar Energy Master's, where a previous assignment involved creating code that would be able to do just this. I have expanded it by adding optimal tracker and backtracking calculations given a GCR as well.
