Increment map from aerodynamic coefficients

The increment map is composed of two-dimensional arrays. The first dimension is given by the length of the input vectors of the baseline aeroPerformanceMap and the second dimension by the vector of relative deflections (or command inputs) of control surfaces (or control distributors). An example is described in the <CPACS> root element.
