gimms 1.2.2 (2023-08-09)

🐛 bug fixes

• Resolves curl::handle_setopt() error during inventory update from the default "poles" server (#9)

🐛 bug fixes

• Read "poles" FTP download info directly from website to avoid problems associated with changed username or password (#4).

💬 documentation etc

• Turned on markdown support for roxygen

gimms 1.2.0

New features:

• File retrieval from A Big Earth Data Platform for Three Poles provided by The National Center for Atmospheric Research at http://poles.tpdc.ac.cn/en/data/9775f2b4-7370-4e5e-a537-3482c9a83d88/.
• Initialized ‘tinytest’ unit testing (tbc).

Changes:

• Server order has changed and now defaults to c("poles", "nasanex", "ecocast")
• In case server is unavailable, updateInventory() returns offline files list for target server straight away without testing alternate servers first.

gimms 1.1.3

Changes:

• Handle expired ECOCAST SSL certificate in updateInventory().
• gimms:::updateNasanex() now yields valid online filepaths.

gimms 1.1.2

Changes:

• Removed ‘RCurl’ dependency.

gimms 1.1.1

Changes:

• Roxygen2 update
• Use DOI hyperlinks rather than direct journal links due to deprecation issues.
• Rasterized NDVI3g.v0 images are no longer kept in memory, but linked to corresponding file on disk if ‘filename’ is specified.

gimms 1.1.0

New features:

• Function oldNaming() to transform new .nc4 file names into “traditional” NDVI3g.v0 naming convention, optionally appending a suffix (e.g., ‘.tif’).
• Added parallel support to significantTau(),‘RasterStackBrick’-method.

Changes:

• Issued MIT license.

gimms 1.0.0

New features:

• Added support for the recently released NDVI3g.v1 to all package functions.
• Included local file inventories for all available GIMMS products (NDVI3g.v0 and NDVI3g.v1) and their respective servers (ECOCAST, NASANEX).
• rasterizeGimms() now includes an extent argument (‘ext’) to enable clipping based on raster::crop().

Changes:

• Quality control has been added to rasterizeGimms() through specifying permitted flag values (‘keep’), rendering the subsequent application of a separate function unnecessary. For reasons of convenience, however, qualityControl() is still available.
• Scaling and the rejection of water and nodata-mask values are no longer optional.
• If ‘timestamp = TRUE’, monthlyIndices() now returns an object of class ‘Date’ (instead of ‘character’) and ‘…’ is no longer available.

gimms 0.5.0

New features:

• Enabled retrieval of quality flags from rasterizeGimms().
• Added parallel support to downloadGimms(), rasterizeGimms() and monthlyComposite().

Changes:

• Revised package documentation.
