Revision history for Perl extension Geo::ReadGRIB.
0.01 Fri Apr 21 05:45:54 2006
- original version; created by h2xs 1.23 with options
-X -b 5.6.0 -n Geo::ReadGRIB
0.40 Sat May 27
- Added a tempfile() method based on File::Tmp to name
temp filed so had to change Perl version to "use 5.6.1"
- Each method that uses wgrib.exe now uses tempfile() to
name temp files and then removes them when done.
- Changed tests to use full path to test GRIB file
- POD doc tweaks
0.50 June 12
- New method extractLaLo() extracts forecast data for a given
type and time for a range of locations. The locations will be
all (lat, long) points in the GRIB file inside the rectangular
area defined by (lat1, long1) and (lat2, long2) where lat1
>= lat2 and long1 <= long2. - that is, lat1 is north or lat2
and long1 is west of long2 (or the same as...)
0.51 July 10 2006
- Added END block and signal handlers to clean up temp files on
close or interruptions.
- Added new method getParam() to return values of selected
parameters useful to users.
0.98 March 6 2009
- Added Geo::ReadGRIB::Place and Geo::ReadGRIB::PlaceIterator
classes.
- extractLaLo() now returns a PlaceIterator object;
- Deprecated getCatalog() and getCatalogVerbose(). Getting the
offset index for each data type and time is now done during
object creation.
0.99 Oct 2009
- A major bug fix release to support Canadian high res gribs.
- Add a check for GDS byte 6 = 0. Croak if not (yet) supported
lat/long grid
- Discover scan mode from byte 28. Many changes to support south
to north scanning. Will also print advisory messages if it
detects as yet unsupported modes.
- Some refactoring and new tests.
- extract() now returns a PlaceIterator object like extractLaLo
does.
