watina 0.4.2 (2023-09-15)

• Move package {KSgeneral} to Suggests (#103). This avoids package breaking when {KSgeneral} is not available on CRAN. For the moment not taking further measures to protect against it, as the package is currently back on CRAN.

watina 0.4.1 (2021-06-11)

• Fixed non-working get_xg3() and get_chem() for dataframe input, by avoiding the currently defunct dbplyr::db_drop_table() (#89, 08bc66d).
• Various maintenance (#81, #86, #87, #88, c382499).

watina 0.4.0 (2021-01-18)

• This release has been made compatible with dbplyr 2.0.0 (on CRAN); the dbplyr fork is not needed anymore (e66e58f, #74).
  • Follow the installation procedure on the homepage (readme) to upgrade.
  • Lazy results of get_locs(), get_xg3() and get_chem() are not sorted anymore. Sorting is done in tibbles only, i.e. if collect = TRUE. For more information, consult the Note added in the documentation of these functions.
• Fix broken selectlocs_xg3() and selectlocs_chem() (#73).
• Fix get_locs() error when no locations remain after spatial masking (c96421e).
• Fix get_locs() error when obswell_aggr = "mean" (#80).
• Adopt further inbodb functionality (#75):
  • re-export its dbDisconnect();
  • transfer handling of character encoding to inbodb.
• Improve documentation and pkgdown website (#76, #77, 3986b4e).

watina 0.3.0 (2020-05-20)

New features

• New function cluster_locs() to spatially cluster locations (well clusters) (#39)
• More fun with get_locs():
  • optionally allow groundwater piezometers with missing filterdepth (argument filterdepth_na)
  • optionally replace missing filterdepth values in a conservative way, based on tubelength (argument filterdepth_guess, #44)
  • return eight more observation well attributes beside filterdepth (#44)
  • four methods are available to aggregate observation well attributes per location (argument obswell_aggr, #44)
  • applying a spatial mask is now a little speedier (#57)
• as_points() and get_locs() return a warning when duplicated coordinates occur in their local result (#51, thanks @w-jan)
• Package dependency moved from inborutils to inbodb: this is a change within connect_watina() which should not affect its behaviour and which reduces overall package dependencies.

Further, a number of smaller fixes and enhancements were made.
