Description

Version 4.8

  • Several functions have been vectorized using numpy.vectorize(). These include: spharm_lm(), legendre_lm(), MakeGridPoint(), MakeGridPointC(), DownContFilterMA(), DownContFilterMC(), NormalGravity(), SHConfidence(), and PlmIndex().
  • A new Fortran routine MakeGradientDH was added to compute the horizontal gradient of a real scalar function. The method .gradient() was added to the SHCoeffs class, and a new class SHGradient was created to store and plot the two horizontal components of the gradient.
  • Added new Fortran functions MakeGravGridPoint and MakeMagGridPoint to compute the gravity and magnetic field vector at a single point.
  • Added the option to compute the gravity and magnetic field vectors at a single point using the python class methods SHGravCoeffs.expand() and SHMagCoeffs.expand().
  • The plot_spectrum2d() routines have been updated to include more plotting options, including placement of the origin, tick intervals, and colormaps. Most optional parameters are the same as in the SHGrid.plot() method.
  • Added the option to including intensity shading in the SHGrid.plotgmt() routine. The shading can be derived from the gradient of the input grid (by setting shading=True) or from a different map by supplying an SHGrid class instance. Optional parameters include the azimuth of the shading (shading_azimuth), as well as the maximum amplitude of the intensity (shading_amplitude).
  • Modified all the Fortran routines to use a slightly more efficient way to compute the radius of an ellipsoid as a function of geocentric latitude.
  • Fixed a bug in SHCoeffs.expand() when colat was specified in radians.
  • All declarations of integers in the Fortran code are now made using the types defined in the module iso_fortran_env. Furthermore, the python wrapper and signature files have been updated to be explicit when defining the Fortran variables.
  • Fixed a bug where the old module name constant needed to be updated to constants in the method SHCoeffs.centroid().
  • Corrected the parameterization used when generating ellipsoids in SHGrid.from_ellipsoid(). Though this method was introduced in v4.7, it was not mentioned in the release notes.
  • Changed the default behavior of SHCoeffs.to_array() so that the default value is not to return the errors by setting errors=False.
  • Added the optional attribute name to the coefficient classes SHGrid, SHGravCoeffs, SHMagCoeffs and SlepianCoeffs. All datasets now explicity set name to the function call of the dataset.
  • Moved the file shtools.h from src/ to include/ and updated the Makefiles accordingly.
