Distribution Statement
Version 1.2.1 (2021-10-04)#
v1.2.1: Test repo output updates (remove recentering, updated matplotlib/cartopy), and code refactor/simplification
Breaking Interface Changes#
- remove_duplicates function now takes the explicit filename_format string, and returns the remove_duplicates
method within the <filename_format> module.
Separated sar_netcdf reader from sfc_winds_netcdf.py
Eventually plan to separate all sfc_winds readers - they should all be independent modules.
Breaking Test Repo Updates#
Updated cartopy to 0.20.0 and matplotlib to v3.4.3
test repo outputs incompatible with matplotlib < 3.4.0 and cartopy < 0.19.0
Older versions have figures that are very slightly shifted from later versions
Exclusively a qualitative difference, but it does cause the test comparisons to fail
No longer recentering all TC outputs by default
General outputs are not recentered as of 1.2.1 - test recentering separately from other functionality
Refactor#
Moved metoctiff plugin to a separate installable repository
Moved recenter_tc plugin to a separate installable repository
Major New Functionality#
Initial center radius coverage checks, for Tropical Cyclone applications
Initial SAR Normalized Radar Cross Section (NRCS) product implementation
Improvements#
Standardized and formalized the README, setup script, and test script format for all plugin repos
Removed requirement to link test scripts from plugin repos into the main geoips test directory
Bug fixes#
Added “METADATA” key in sfc_winds_netcdf.py return dictinoary
