In david6marsh/himach: Find Routes for Supersonic Aircraft

himach (development version)

himach 0.3.2

• New graphics: Route density charts, for routes combined with forecasts. See the Advanced Vignette.
• Bug fixes: package dependencies, package documentation.

himach 0.3.1

• Bug fixes: Prettier cutting of background map at dateline.
• Dependency upgrades
• using edition 3 of testthat
• removing deprecated syntax in tidyverse

himach 0.3.0

• New graphics options: in map_routes colour lines by a flight frequency variable or by number of accelerations to supersonic; now can also plot a simple speed/distance/time/altitude profile with profile_routes.
• Added a section on cache housekeeping to the advanced vignette.
• Bug fixes: Solved map 'leakage' at dateline, and make_AP2 copes with vectors of airport pairs correctly now.

himach 0.2.3

• Fixes for solaris running old GDAL: switch to storing crs_Atlantic etc as strings.

himach 0.2.2

• Fixed crash when routing over very short hops (say for re-positioning flights).
• (development) Bug fixes: map leakage solved, summarise_routes now works with 3-letter airport codes as well as 4 (though default is still ICAO codes, not IATA codes for airports).
• Removed use of Travis for code coverage.

himach 0.2.1

• Patch so that tests work ok with sf v1.0+.

himach 0.2.0

• More precise estimate of time penalty for acceleration from subsonic to supersonic cruise (or v.v.). Perhaps 1% difference in timings as a result.
• Faster map plots, since maps are simplified (a little) now, by default.

himach 0.1.2

• Tweak test for CRAN.
• Fixed issue when using package functions without loading package.

himach 0.1.1

• Fixing check errors on other platforms
• Errors involving "NULL: PROJ available?" appear linked to this 'older GDAL' issue in sf. So implemented a work-around in various examples and vignettes.
• Use make_aircraft(warn = FALSE) in examples & vignettes just to eliminate warnings. Still think this merits a warning in normal use, because the default aircraft are unlikely to be fit for purposes beyond testing.
• bug fix: Mach 0.84 comparison from summarise_routes now uses 0.84 instead of 0.85.

himach 0.1.0

• First version targeted for CRAN release.
• Fixes a number of bugs in the avoid-area functionality.

himach 0.0.2

• Major overhaul of the approach to smoothing from a Dijkstra-style route to a great-circle route, to handle the 1% of cases where the old approach didn't work well.
• Further speed improvements.

himach 0.0.1

• First version using the s2 capabilities of the sf package. This gives more robust plotting, and a number of internal speed improvements.
