N.B. You need SPICE kernels to perform convertion (see related question here)
How to retrieve Solar Orbiter orbit digest CDF files ?
The SOC provides CDF files that contain Solar Orbiter location and speed in HEE and HCI coordinate systems.
These files are made available in the SOC Public Confluence page (https://issues.cosmos.esa.int/solarorbiterwiki/)
A copy of these files are also saved by the LESIA in https://rpw.lesia.obspm.fr/roc/data/private/solo/soc/spice/cdf/ (restricted access)
Where is Solar Orbiter spacecraft currently?
