In this video I go over how to calculate latitude / longitude coordinates from inertial state vectors in python. I also show how to implement these functions into the OrbitPropagator class. The main script in this video shows how to propagate two orbits (one at 40 degrees inclination and the other at 90) and then plot their groundtracks to see how they differ.
