December 9, 2021
Version 20211209 of RSIG3D includes the following features, enhancements, and fixes:
- CMAQ Atmospheric Modeling and Analysis Division (AMAD) data has been replaced with EPA Air QUality TimE Series Project (EQUATES) data. The EQUATES data includes Continental United States (CONUS) and HEMI (northern hemisphere domain) for 2002-2017.
- Modified RSIG3D to allow users to specify desired CALIPSO Level-1 and Level-2 science data product versions, consistent with NASA-Langley data processing.
- Added option to display high-resolution boundary lines for U.S. states.
- Added PurpleAir air quality data with EPA correction to improve the accuracy of PM2.5 data.
- Added 2018 FAQSD data.
- Windows version is signed with an extended validation (EV) digital certificate.
- Added option for regridding (interpolating) data onto regular lat/lon grids.
- Optimized stereographic option for viewing CMAQ hemispherical grids.
- Reduced RSIG3D memory requirements.
- Fixed bug pertaining to Air Quality Index (AQI) color maps.
- Other minor bug fixes.
January 21, 2021
Version 20210121 of RSIG3D includes the following features, enhancements, and fixes:
- Added the ability to filter TROPOMI data by the maximum cloud fraction.
- Fixed an issue that caused a delay when RSIG3D is launched.
- Updated the timestamp format when using non-hourly time bases.
November 2020
- Added High Resolution Rapid Refresh (HRRR) model wind data.
- Added time-aggregated TROPOMI data products.
- Added 2017 FAQSD data.
- Added the ability to acquire and visualize data using different time bases (e.g. hourly, daily, monthly).
- Updated the spatial weighting algorithm for data regridding.
- Added the ability to compute spatial means within a user-defined bounding box.
- Improved the rendering performance of satellite true color imagery.
- Improved the algorithm that determines which TROPOMI data files contribute to a user-defined spatial bounding box. This information is provided by RSIG3D as metadata that is valuable to users for post processing.
- Added new colormap options.
- Fixed an issue that caused map lines to be misregistered when using Lambert Conformal Conic projection.
