Version 1.2.0 (2021-09-15)#

v1.2.0: Major backwards incompatible update for stable and dev plugin interface implementation

Breaking Interface Changes#

  • Removed all deprecated code

  • Developed dev interface for accessing modules, moved plugins to geoips/interface_modules

    • algorithms, area_def_generators, coverage_checks, filename_formats, interpolation,

      mtif_params, output_formats, procflows, trackfile_parsers, user_colormaps

  • Developed finalized stable interface, moved stable plugins to geoips/interface_modules

    • readers

  • Consolidated YAML config files in geoips/yaml_configs

Refactor#

  • Moved geoips package into subdirectory for pip installability

Major New Functionality#

  • Exhaustive test scripts with final return value of 0 for successful completion of all functionality

  • dev and stable interfaces, allowing entry point based plugins

  • Initial geotiff output support

  • Initial full disk output support

  • Night Visible products

  • Gdeck and flat sectorfile trackfile parsers

Improvements#

  • YAML based product specifications (references colormaps, algorithms,

    interpolation routines, coverage checks, etc)

Bug fixes#

  • Resolved sectoring issue, allowing complete center coverage

    • Previously when sectoring based on min/max lat/lon, any values outside the explicit

      requested values would be masked, causing masked data on non-square datasets when good data was actually available for the entire requested region. Only drop rows outside requested range, do not mask data.

Performance Upgrades#

  • Initial config-based processing implementation, which will allow efficiently processing

    multiple output types in a single run.
