v0.3.0 (November 22, 2023)

These are substantial changes in v0.2.7 API that lead to new features and fugs fixed.

• API change Datasets h.h5 and n.npz for Hongliu hydrogeological logging and Nansha land subsidence data are removed from the software installation. User can fetch the data as usual and should be downloaded remotely. This will considerably reduce the size of the watex.datasets package.

• API change watex.methods.em.Processing and watex.methods.em.ZC do no longer exist. They have been changed to watex.methods.em.EMAP and watex.methods.em.MT respectively.

• API change watex.utils.funcutils.fit_by_ll is deprecated and replaced by watex.utils.funcutils.fit_ll().

• Fix Bug in removing the static shift in AMT data. Henceforth the correction factor method deprecated method watex.methods.em.ZC.get_ss_correction_factors replaced by watex.methods.em.MT.get_ss_correction_factors() is applied for each station differently rather than using the factor to correct all stations. There are also a choice for user to input the correction factors ss_fx and ss_fy manually into a list.

• Feature watex.utils.plotutils.plot_tensors() plots resistivity and phase tensors or the real and imaginary impedance.

• Feature watex.utils.torres_verdin_filter() calculates the adaptive moving average of a given data array from Torres and Verdin codes.

• Feature watex.methods.em.filter_noises() remove noise from component xx, yy, xy or yx.

• Feature watex.methods.em.MT.remove_noises() removes artifacts in the data and smooth it.

• Feature watex.methods.em.drop_frequencies() drop bad frequencies or frequencies with no consistent data in the EDI files.

• Feature watex.utils.plotutils.plot_sounding() plot the vertical electrical resistivity data.

• Feature watex.utils.baseutils.download_file2() is the new consistent function to download file remotely rather than using watex.utils.baseutils.get_remote_data(). Both expect requests library to be installed.

• Enhancement watex.utils.plot_profiling() accepts ax as a paramater.

• Enhancement watex.view.TPlot.plot_rhophi() changes the style of plot in preceeding versions. It accepts parameter kind for plotting multiple stations differently.

• Enhancement Fix overlapping xlabels in the watex.utils.exmath.plotOhmicArea().
