% Compute ground coverage for an orbit. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Form:
   [lat, lon] = GroundCoverage( xECI, jD, d )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
   ------
   Inputs
   ------
   xECI            (6,1) [r;v]
   jD              (1,1) Julian sdate
   d                (:)    
                         .m    (3,3) Transformation from LVLH to Sensor
                         .fOV        .x  (1,1) angle along x
                                     .y  (1,1) angle along y
                         .e    (3,1) [a;b;c] Dimensions of planet
   -------
   Outputs
   -------
   lat             (1,4) Latitude of the coverage points
   lon             (1,4) Longitude of the coverage points
