Changes in version 2.0.7.9000 - n/a Changes in version 2.0.7 (2024-05-15) bug fixes - fixed issue with rasterizeReduced(); - updates to deal with changes to RNG in dqrng (#96; @rstub). if backwards compatibility is needed, set dqrng::dqRNGkind("Xoroshiro128+") before running spread to ensure numerical reproducibility with previous versions; Changes in version 2.0.6 (2024-04-15) Enhancements - minor documentation updates Dependency changes - drop support for R 4.1 due to changes in dependency packages Bug fixes - none Changes in version 2.0.5 (2023-11-10) Enhancements - randomPolygons() works with sf objects; - use numeric vector in crw to accommodate downstream dependency changes; Dependency changes - requires reproducible (>= 2.0.9) Bug fixes - fixed splitRaster() tests that broke due to changes in reproducible::Filenames() (#91) Changes in version 2.0.4 (2023-09-01) Enhancements - improved documentation - address new features of quickPlot - minor modifications to crw to allow downstream packages that use matrix classes instead of sf or SpatVector classes for "agents" - address timing issue on CRAN machines Dependency changes - removed Suggests dependencies CircStats, dplyr, purrr, DBI, RColorBrewer, googledrive, snow Bug fixes - none Changes in version 2.0.0 (2023-05-23) Enhancements - wholesale transition to terra from raster and sp. Some functionality is available for sf, but this will not be complete. - splitRaster() uses ".tif" as the default raster file type - most example plotting uses terra::plot directly, but in a few cases, quickPlot::Plot is used as it is much better (e.g., spread2(plot.it = TRUE)) Dependency changes - drop support for R 4.0 (dependency package reproducible supports R >= 4.1); - now has only 7 Imports and Depends, which becomes 15 recursive dependencies (down from 40) - add terra to Imports - removed dependencies magrittr, rgeos, rlang, Require, graphics - added to Suggests: withr - moved to Suggests: quickPlot, fastmatch, raster, sp, sf, CircStats - added snow to Suggests as it's used for parallel raster operations; - added tools to Suggests for file.ext() Bugfixes - all open issues dealt with - fixes related to migration to terra - other minor bug fixes Changes in version 1.0.2 Dependency changes - none Enhancements - terra compatibility added - neutralLandscapeMap expanded to use more NLMR functions Bug Fixes - suppress additional spurious warnings Changes in version 1.0.1 (2023-01-05) Enhancements - a new function, neutralLandscapeMap, replaces the defunct gaussMap in creating a neutral landscape map using the midpoint displacement algorithm available in NLMR::nlm_mpd. Changes in version 1.0.0 (2022-08-16) This is a major SpaDES.tools update causing breaking changes due to multiple CRAN packages no longer available as of R version 4.2 released April 2022. Dependency changes - Removed dependencies ffbase and ff and deprecated use of lowMemory argument in spread (ffbase was removed from CRAN April 2022). - Removed dependency RandomFields which is no longer maintained. We had to drop support for random landscape generation via gaussMap(); but see the NLMR package for tools to create random neutral landscapes. Enhancements - mergeRaster() can deal with rasters with different origins extents (i.e., that were not produced using splitRaster()) Bug Fixes - spread2 was unable to use maxSize when start was the output of a previous spread2 call to which maxSize had not been supplied. This has now been fixed. Changes in version 0.3.10 (2022-02-03) Dependency changes - drop support for R 3.6 (#65) Enhancements - none Bug Fixes - fix error in spread2() causing failures on R-devel Changes in version 0.3.9 (2021-09-29) Dependency changes - Require moved to Suggests, because it's only used in examples. Enhancements - none Bug Fixes - fixed misc CRAN check issues with Suggested packages - fixed bug in splitRaster() (#62; @anbm-dk) Changes in version 0.3.8 (2021-06-07) Dependency changes - Dropped support for R 3.5 due to changes in dependency packages. R versions 3.6 and higher are supported. Enhancements - distanceFromEachPoint: cl argument can now accept a numeric scalar indicating how many cores to use with an mclapply internally - distanceFromEachPoint: minor speed improvements - spread3 has new arguments (sdDist, dispersalKernel) - improved speed for spread under most conditions, especially larger events, possibly up to 2x. - splitRaster() can now specify file extension, instead of defaulting to .grd - several under the hood improvements for stability, speed Bug Fixes - distanceFromEachPoint bugfixes under some cases (some values of toCells, angles would cause errors) Changes in version 0.3.6 (2020-06-23) Dependency changes - none Bug Fixes - spread with allowOverlap = TRUE would give wrong results. Fixed. - update a test to deal with forthcoming raster changes. Enhancements - none Changes in version 0.3.5 (2020-05-15) We have identified a non-trivial bug in spread when using allowOverlap = TRUE. Until we can patch this bug, using this argument value will generate an error. We are currently working on a fix, which may take some time. Dependency changes - removed orphaned package bit; its reverse dependencies, ff and ffbase, moved to Suggests Bugfixes - none Enhancements - spread sped up for allowOverlap = TRUE - New values for returnIndices arg in spread, allowing for numeric. New option, 2 allows for the fastest return possible, only pixelIndices Changes in version 0.3.4 (2019-12-17) Dependency changes - none Bugfixes - fix issues with failing tests on CRAN Enhancements - none Changes in version 0.3.3 (2019-11-25) Dependency changes - Requires R >= 3.5 - Added animation since it is used in the spread3 example. - Added backports for R-oldrel support - Removed profvis and microbenchmark from Suggests: all benchmarking is removed from automated tests Bugfixes - minor Bug Fixes Enhancements - spread2 speed enhancements Changes in version 0.3.2 (2019-03-19) Dependency changes - Added animation, fasterize, and sf to suggests (used in examples) Bugfixes - minor bug fixes Enhancements - spread2 now takes a numeric for allowOverlap, to allow for 1 more scenario of overlapping, namely, allow between event overlapping, and within event overlapping only if the overlap occurs in the same iteration, otherwise, do not allow overlap within event. - new function spread3 for simulating e.g., insect spread - pointDistance is now exported Changes in version 0.3.1 (2019-02-01) Dependency changes - RandomFields moved to Suggests to prevent clashes with data.table multithreading Enhancements - randomPolygon now has area argument, instead of hectares (deprecated), and it now succeeds for more cases. - mergeRaster now accepts a function passed by the user when mosaic is triggered (#55, @tati-micheletti) - initiateAgents example fixed to work with newer raster package versions (@rhijmans) Changes in version 0.3.0 (2018-07-14) New features - splitRaster defaults to in-memory rasters when no file path specified (#47, @ianmseddy). Removed features - Previously deprecated functions removed to fix CRAN check WARNINGs. These are now located in the reproducible package. - compiler package no longer used; is automatic in R >= 3.5 Changes in version 0.2.0 (2018-06-18) New features - new arguments added to gaussMap (#20, @ianmseddy). - move fastMask to reproducible package Deprecated functions - fastCrop(): raster::crop is faster than velox::crop under many tests. - fastMask(): moved to the reproducible package. Bug Fixes - minor bug fixes (spread2) - minor test fixes. Dependency changes - dplyr and mgcv added to Suggests because they are used in tests. Changes in version 0.1.1 (2018-02-01) - add more detailed information to package Description, per CRAN. - add randomPolygon function for single random polygon. - speed improvements with spread2 when asymmetry used. - minor bug fixes. Changes in version 0.1.0 (2017-08-12) - A new package, which takes all auxiliary modelling functions out of the SpaDES package: - see ?SpaDES.tools::SpaDES.tools for an overview of included functionality.
