The HANDE model is apparently described in Spacetrack Report number 6,
by Felix R Hoots, dated July 1986, from USSPACECOM in Colorado.

I'm not sure whether it is publically available but since it is an option
with Rob Matson's Skymap I guess you must be able to get it from
somewhere.

No idea about the extra info in the HANDE elset. Only that there are 17
elements.
