Description

bioRad 0.7.3 includes minor bugfixes and improvements. Basemaps used by function map() are now based on OpenStreetMap tiles provided through dependency packages ggspatial and rosm. All issues included in this release can be found here.

New features

  • Replaced the ggmap package with ggspatial for map visualizations. This change was made as ggmap no longer provides reliable open-source basemaps without the necessity to register for an API key (#638).

Bugfixes

  • Corrected incorrect mapping of to dbz_all data column in VPTS CSV format to corresponding DBZH data column in bioRad vpts object (#634).

  • Improved the VPTS file fetching mechanism from s3: now skips a day if there are issues with fetching instead of aborting the entire download (#636)

Deprecations

  • download_basemap() has been deprecated, function map() now automatically downloads a basemap (#638).
