Obtaining the Space Indices
julia> using Datesjulia> using SpaceIndicesjulia> SpaceIndices.Scratch.clear_scratchspaces!(SpaceIndices)
After the initialization shown in Initialization of Space Indices, the user can obtain the space index value using the function:
space_index(::Val{:index}, jd::Number; kwargs...) -> Number
space_index(::Val{:index}, instant::DateTime; kwargs...) -> Numberwhere index is the desired space index and jd is the Julian Day to obtain the information. The latter can also be specified using instant, which is a DateTime object.
