Does MATLAB Aerospace Toolbox satellite access calculation include terrain blockage?

I have place an earth terminal at the bottom of the Grand Canyon and at the top and receive identical satellite access periods. How do I add terrain blockage effects to the scenario?

Hi Joseph,

As per my understanding you are trying to access satellite from ground station and want to add terrain blockages into this scenario.

There is no such direct example or information on this. However, you can refer the following example documentation and can manipulate various parameters according to your case:
