Changelog

2.1.0

Introduction

Fixing some bugs associated with AWS evaluation and the drought-monitor application

Features

• Added algorithm.TransformTimeUnits algorithm to be able to utilize time in terms of dayofyear

• Added Coordinates.transform_time method to transform YYYY-MM-DD time units to something like dayofyear

Bug Fixes

• Removed region_name from authentication.S3Mixin because it is not a valid argument

• Made the algorithm.Mask node simpler to JSON serialize

• Made interpolator tolerant of string-based timedelta values

• Added the crs to Node outputs if it is not present – this caused issues with the union call in Algorithm.eval

• Fixed data.Zarr’s open_consolidated call. It was erroneously passing the r argument.

2.0.0

Introduction

Features

• Added MODIS datasource datalib.modis_pds

• Added datalib.weathercitizen to retrieve weathercitizen data

• Added datalib.cosmos_stations to retrieve soil moisture data from the stationary COSMOS soil moisture network

• Added algorithm.ResampleReduce, which allows users to coarsen a dataset based on a reduce operation (such as mean, max, etc.).

• Added the managers.parallel submodule that enables parallel computation with PODPAC in a multi-threaded, multi-process, or multi-AWS-Lambda-function way

• Added the managers.multi_process submodule that enables PODPAC nodes to be run in another process.

• Added the compositor.UniformTileCompositor and compositor.UniformTileMixin to enable compositing of data sources BEFORE harmonization (so that interpolation can happen across data sources with the same coordinate systems)

• Added the validate_crs flag to Coordinates so that validation of the crs can be skipped if needed (this improved speed)

• Added managers.aws.Lambda.eval_timeout attribute so that Python will only wait a certain amount of time before returning from a invoke call.

• Added asynchronous evaluation of managers.aws.Lambda Nodes. Note! This does not do error checking (e.g. exceeding AWS allocation f the number of allowed concurrent threads).

• Added alglib.climatology, which allows computation of Beta distribution fits to time series for each day of the year

• Added core.algorithm.stats.DayOfYearWindow, which is similar to GroupReduce, but also allows a window for the computation and only works for time

• Coordinates will now be automatically simplified when transformed from one crs to another. Previously, transformations always resulted in DependentCoordinates. This change adds the .simply method to some Coordinates1d classes.

• Improved performance of PODPAC AWS Lambda function by only downloading dependencies when the function is not already “hot”. “Hot” functions retain the files in the /tmp directory of the Lambda function.

• data.Zarr will now use zarr.open_consolidated whenever the file_mode='r' for more efficient read operations on S3

• Added podpac’s version to pipeline definitions

Bug Fixes

• Fixed algorithm.GroupReduce to accept dayofyear, weekofyear, season, and month. It also now returns the time coordinate in one of these units.

• Implemented a circular dependency check to avoid infinite recursion and locking up due to cache accessing. This change also defined the NodeDefinitionError exception.

• Fixed the UnitsDataArray.to_format function’s zarr_part format to work propertly with parallel computations

• Added the [algorithm] dependencies as part of the AWS Lambda function build – previously the numexpr Python package was missing

Breaking changes

• Renamed native_coordinates to coordinates

• Deprecated Pipeline nodes

• Removed ctype and segment_length from Coordinates. Now specify the boundary attribute for DataSource nodes instead.

• Fixed datalib.smap_egi module to work with xarray version 0.15

• Modified PODPAC’s root setting directory from ~/.podpac to ~/.config/podpac

• Changed default cache behaviour to overwrite by default (prevents certain cache lock situations)

• Removed datalib.airmoss – it was no longer working!

Maintenance

• Refactored the way PODPAC keeps track of Node definition. Most all of it is now handled by the base class, previously DataSource, Algorithm, and Compositor had to implement specialized functions.

• Refactored datalib nodes to prefer using the new cached_property decorator instead of defaults which were causing severe circular dependencies

• Refactored DataSource nodes that access files on S3 to use a common Mixin

• Refactored authentication to use more consistent approach across the library

1.3.0

Introduction

The purpose of this release was to make the software more robust and to improve the Drought Monitor Application.

Features

• Algorithm arrays can now be multi-threaded. This allows an algorithm with multiple S3 data sources to fetch the data in parallel before doing the computation, speeding up the process. See #343

• Improvements to AWS interface. See #336

• Added budgeting / billing capability to manage AWS resources. See #361

• Added GeoTIFF export / import capability. Lots of work with geotransforms in the Coordinates object. See #364.

• Nodes can now have multiple output channels. This support multispectral or multichannel data. See #348.

Bug Fixes

• When intersecting time coordinate of different precision, no intersection would result. See #344

• Fixed Array datasource serialization 55fcf30

Breaking Changes

• The H5PY, CSV, and Zarr nodes interfaces were unified as such, the following attributes have changed:

  • datakey –> data_key

  • latkey –> lat_key

  • lonkey –> lon_key

  • altkey –> alt_key

  • timekey –> time_key

  • keys –> available_keys

  • CSV.lat_col –> lat_key

  • CSV.lon_col –> lon_key

  • CSV.time_col –> time_key

  • CSV.alt_col –> alt_key

1.2.0

Introduction

The purpose of this release was to develop a short course for AMS2020. A major feature of this release is automated creation of the PODPAC Lambda function. As part of this we implemented a few more additional features, and fixed a number of bugs.
