vol2birdR 1.3.2

• No changes for users, fixes compiler error and warnings requested by CRAN (#165).

• Provides fixes for building with HDF5 2.x. Keep using HDF5 1.12 API for HDF5>=2 versions (#162). configure now reports the HDF5 flags it detected and warns when the HDF5 library cannot be linked.

• vol2birdR now uses ‘LibTorch’ 2.14.0 by default for mistnet runs, up from 1.12.1. This fixes a failure to load ‘MistNet’ on recent Linux distributions such as Fedora 44. On Intel macOS the default is upgraded to ‘LibTorch’ 2.1.2, the most recent release for which ‘PyTorch’ publishes an x86_64 macOS build (#158).

vol2birdR 1.3.1

• No changes for users, fixes compiler warnings as requested by CRAN (#160).

vol2birdR 1.3.0

New Features

• Add functionality to create profiles relative to ground level and antenna level (in addition to pre-existing default: sea level) (#138, #142).

• Add configuration options to vol2bird_config(): (1) groundHeightParam to specify the scan parameter containing digital elevation information for ground level profiles. (2) heightReference to specify the reference height (sea, ground or antenna) (#138, #142).

• Add height_reference as an output column to csv profile output, adopting VPTS CSV v1.1 format (#154).

• Add TDWR radar station info (#104). Caution: wavelength of TDWR stations not parsing correctly yet (#155).

• Align radar locations and antenna heights with latest metadata provided by NCEI (#144).

• add missing KHDC radar station info (#148).

• Distinguish between stdout and stderr messages (#142, 67e021f).

Bugfixes

• fix beam width attribute in polar volume object (#153).

• Fixes a rare segfault identified on Mac when reading a corrupted NEXRAD file (#102).

• Improve messaging when reading ill-formatted ODIM hdf5 file (#136).

• Abort graciously when encountering invalid ray indices in legacy NEXRAD files (#147).

• Fix console print formatting (#139).
