caliver 2.0

• Version submitted to CRAN.
• Expanded and improved documentation
• Corrected typos
• Changes in function names:
• plot_fire_pdf becomes plot_pdf
• plot_percentile_raster becomes plot_percentiles
• get_percentile_raster becomes get_percentile_maps and incorporates two approaches: percentile of full record and percentile over daily climatology
• Deprecated function:
• stack_with_rat

caliver 1.7

• Removed references and dependencies from defunct functions.
• Removed unused test datasets.
• The following functions have changed:
• mask_crop_subset, mask and crop input argument have been removed as deemed superfluous. Also the option accurate has been removed.
• The following functions are now defunct:
• decompress_gz() - Decompress all .gz files in a given folder
• import_geff_data_from_tar() - Import GEFF data from a tar file into a raster stack
• mean_percs() - Calculate average percentile
• stack_netcdf_files() - Merges all the netcdf files in a given directory over the time dimension
• get_gfed4 - Get data from the fourth-generation Global Fire Emissions (GFED4 ftp service is no longer available)
• mask_with_fuelmodel - there is now an example in the vignette that explains how to do this more generally
