climate 1.3.0

  • adapting code to most recent changes in the IMGW-PIB repository:
    • fixes for meteo_imgw_monthly()
    • changes in metadata and downloading functions for hydrological datasets
    • updated Polish vignette for hydro dataset
    • added find_all_station_names() function to find all station names in the IMGW-PIB repository that match the provided name(s) and return all available datasets for those stations (e.g.entry "WARSZAWA" will also search for: "WARSZAWA-BIELANY", "WARSZAWA-OKECIE", "WARSZAWA-OBSERWATORIUM", etc.)

climate 1.2.9

  • fixes for corrupted header files in meteo_imgw_ family of functions due to changes in the IMGW-PIB repository

climate 1.2.8

  • speeding up selective download for given station names in meteo_imgw_* and hydro_imgw_daily() functions that simultaneously reduce use of memory

climate 1.2.3

  • Fixes and modifications for meteo_imgw_daily() and meteo_imgw_hourly() due to changes in the IMGW-PIB meteorological datasets since 2024
    • adjusting code to recognize whether downloaded zip file is not corrupted and use the "archive" package to resolve some of found edge cases
    • skipping corrupted files without breaking the download
    • removed possibility to download stations from IMGW-PIB repository using stations' ID for daily intervals
  • Returning all available IMGW-PIB meteorological dataset if provided station name(s) was not found
  • Logging errors in package environment and providing summary at the end of downloading instead of instant messaging
  • Minor changes in unit-tests to adjust for most recent code changes

climate 1.2.2

  • Fixes and modifications for hydro_imgw() set of functions due to changes in the IMGW-PIB hydrological datasets
    • adjusting code to recognize different encoding and directory structure
    • adjusting changes in metadata
    • removed option to download data for "semiannual and annual" time resolutions due to inconsistencies in the data
  • Fix unit tests for ogimet- and IMGW-related datasets
  • Resolving date formatting for hydrological data - the Date column represents calendar date
  • Corrected logic in downloading hourly OGIMET dataset

climate 1.2.1

  • Major fixes for adjusting code to stay in line with CRAN policies
  • Corrected duplicated column names for IMGW-PIB stations
  • Adjusted encoding changes and documentation updates in meteo_imgw_telemetry_stations()

climate 1.2.0

  • Corrected encoding problems for some of platforms where IMGW-PIB metadata were not parsed correctly
  • Added location of IMGW-PIB telemetry stations within meteo_imgw_telemetry_stations()
  • Minor bug fixes

climate 1.1.1

  • Fix problems with downloading precip dataset from IMGW-PIB repository after recent changes in metadata
  • Bug fix for ogimet_daily if data contains more than one year

climate 1.1.0

  • A new approach for handling CRAN policy for resolving problems if network issues are detected or some of the external services are temporarily down.
  • Adding allow_failure argument used by default that turns off automatic debugging but avoid warnings and errors for most typical use cases
  • re-factoring of unit tests
  • documentation build with CI/CD
  • updating vignettes and examples, including the way to use climate with Python

climate 1.0.5

  • meteo_imgw family of functions supports multiple names as argument - bug fix
  • unit tests and code coverage computed with CI/CD
  • units added to column labels for nearest_stations_ set of functions instead of column names for easier processing (e.g. [km] are visible now only as attributes)
  • new functions follow lintr settings

climate 1.0.4

  • Function spheroid_dist added to improve accuracy of calculations between points, but also avoid installing GIS dependencies (thanks to @kadyb)
  • Function nearest_stations_imgw() now uses the Vincenty's formula in spheroid_dist to calculate the distance between points on a spheroid, not the Euclidean distance (previously results were inaccurate for some specific cases)
  • minor bugs fixes and improvements

climate 1.0.3

  • Adding possibility to download BUFR vertical sounding dataset from http://weather.uwyo.edu/upperair/sounding.html; extra information with supporting example added to the sounding_wyoming's documentation
  • hydro_imgw supports now exception for current year which has no flow data until it is verified by the IMGW-PIB
