Release Version 1.10

We released Version 1.10

QGis users please note (after updating the plugin): do not forget to run Admin -> Update AvaFrame from within the toolbox to receive the updated core as well.

The path generation and geotiff release. So the main changes are:

  • The raster reading routines now accept geotiff files as well
  • we updated the automatic path generation, this will also end up in the QGis connector
  • added a new spatialVoellmy friction setup, to read mu/xi values from raster during initialization.
  • fix a long/long Windows bug (again…)
  • some plot can include a (online) background map

Please be aware: the module ascUtils is being deprecated. Please use rasterUtils which has the same functions in it. ascUtils will be removed in a future version.

Also be aware: The benchmarks give slightly changed results! The differences are well within accepted ranges. They originate from the new interpolation during remeshing (using rasterio) and / or the slight changes during conversion from asc to tif topography (see avaAlr). We will update the benchmarks in the next release and add the difference report there.
