• Updated ‘kerguelen’ topo to revised version (2019).

  • Function readfastice() now defaults to the 2020 updated circumpolar files.

  • Now importing fasticefiles() from raadfiles.

  • Align to updated raadfiles (0.1.3.9006) for new OISST file paths.

  • readamps_d1wind() now correctly read the right bands. New function readamps_d2wind() to read the d2 grid.

  • Bit of a clean up around AMPS and Copernicus documentation.

  • New function read_cersat_ice() for 12.5 km SSM/I.

  • New function read_geoid() to read geoid.

  • New function read_sose() to read SOSE Southern Ocean State Estimate layers by level and date, no capacity for xylim or multiple dates (only monthly for now). Explore available variables with sose_monthly_varnames() and available files with ‘raadfiles::sose_monthly_files()’.

  • Add SMAP functions salfiles() and readsal() for surface salinity.

  • Fixed longstanding bugs in several functions that treated latest = TRUE as an override of the date argument. The latest argument now only applies if date is missing. Thanks to @maierhofert https://github.com/AustralianAntarcticDivision/raadtools/issues/96.

  • Add GEBCO 2019 “gebco_19” topography.

  • readchla() is now parallelized with furrr, and includes a grid specification argument

  • distance_to_ice() and distance_to_ice_edge() now include the date on the output and are strictly not vectorized.

  • new function readfsle.

  • Removed dependency on ‘sosoc/croc’ package, by internalizing the imported functions.

  • Now using new raadfiles approach.

  • New function to return polar coastline with ‘polar_map’ function.

  • First parts of REMA data now available from readtopo, with “rema_8m”, “rema_100m” and read_rema_tiles (the 8m index).

  • AMPS data now supports basic access for 10km “d2” files, with amps_d1files moved to raadfiles.

  • Fixed the grid specification for d1 AMPS (and added d2).

  • New topo option “ga_srtm” for the Australian 1-second DEM (~30m), file available only on nectar for now.

  • New readice_area function for “NSIDC SMMR-SSM/I Nasateam sea ice concentration”.

  • Topography readtopo and topofile gain topo = "ramp" option for Radarsat Antarctic digital elevation model V2, elevations relative to the the OSU91a geoid.

  • Topography functions readtopo and topofile now support topo = 'ibcso_is' and topo = 'ibcso_bed' for the ice surface and bedrock versions respectively. The default ‘ibcso’ remains synonomous with ‘ibcso_is’.

  • “cryosat2” and “lake_superior” added to readtopo

  • establish readice_daily and readice_monthly model for future separation

  • re-instated monthly NSIDC north and south hemisphere

  • now use raadfiles for AMPS

  • readchla returns, now providing MODISA/SeaWiFS at native mapped resolution for a given set of input dates (the mean is calculated from the daily L3 bins) for either ‘nasa’ or ‘johnson’ algorithm

  • removed prod files

  • read rapid response is not fixable in place, but now uses the raadfiles-like approach

  • read functions now default to latest = TRUE rather than returning the first available time

  • readssh and sshfiles are now only daily, using the Copernicus sources

  • new function read_amsr_ice to read the 6.25km southern hemisphere product

  • readcurr/currentsfiles now uses new Copernicus source

  • readice/icefiles now limited to daily NSIDC and using raadfiles

  • readsst/sstfiles now uses raadfiles mechanism

  • import from raadfiles for NCEP2 wind 6hourly files, removed the daily option for now

  • now import from raadfiles for NSIDC monthly files, fixes bug https://github.com/AustralianAntarcticDivision/raadtools/issues/54

  • modified AMSR-E Artist sea ice data location as per https://github.com/AustralianAntarcticDivision/raadtools/issues/52

  • new Copernicus source for altimetry products from ftp.sltac.cls.fr/Core/ provided by new functions read_ugosa_daily,read_adt_daily, read_ugos_daily, read_sla_daily, read_vgos_daily, read_vgosa_daily, read_err_daily

  • speed up for extract(function, xyt)

  • a sensible value (4e9) for raster maxmemory is set on startup which means that fewer temp files will be created unnecessarily

  • extract(fun, xyt) now more efficient

  • now imports orsifronts rather than using old bespoke copies

  • startup is now much more robust

  • raadtools now imports raadfiles, for OISST and GHRSST files

  • raadtools::sstfiles() and c. now works without attaching the package

  • ghrsst gains inputfiles, and is now useably fast for track extraction

  • AMSR2 is back (per readice(product = “amsr”)) and the file listing now relies on RSQLite via dplyr and is quite a bit faster

  • change approach for readsst, to err on side of memory use

  • add distance to ice function

  • add metadata for AMPS data, and new general readamps function

  • add extract method for trip objects

  • level for amps files

  • use inputfiles for extract, always

  • big speedups for wind and currents file database loading

  • improvements for readcurr in performance, and file handling

  • new function readchl32 for rolling 32-day weekly files

  • some improvement to the time resolution detection

  • extract(function, data.frame) is now tibble friendly

  • added AMPS data functions amps_d1files and readamps_d1wind

  • converted main vignette from Sweave to RMarkdown

  • package scaffolding
