The following additional tools are included:

1. Camera Position and Orientation Estimation - This tool can be used
   to estimate the position and orientation of a camera at the time it
   acquired a specific image.
2. Gravity Estimation - This tool estimates the gravitational
   potential, gravitational acceleration, elevation, and slope of a
   general polyhedron. It implements the algorithms of Werner and Scheeres
   as well as that of Andy Cheng.
3. Lidar Track Optimization - This tool can be used to determine the
   optimal translation that minimizes the error of a lidar track to the
   asteroid.
4. Trajectory Propagation - This tool uses a shape model, an initial
   position and velocity at a specified time and computes the trajectory
   of an object propagated forward in time with these initial conditions
   by integrating the equations of motion.
