v0.2.7 (July 02, 2023)

These are minor changes in v0.2.6 that shows fugs fixed.

• API change fetch_data_from_repo previously located in watex.geology.core is deprecated and replaced by watex.utils.baseutils.get_remote_data().

• Fix Bug in geographical coordinates when values are given in string in watex.geology.DSDrill_build_geology(). Henceforth, all numerical arguments are casted to numeric values before the drillholes construction.

• Fix watex.utils.funcutils.str2columns() henceforth converts text value to string before parsing.

• Feature watex.utils.baseutils.save_or_load() for saving or loading Numpy arrays. Idem for watex.utils.baseutils.array2hdf5() for loading or writing array to hdf5.

• Feature watex.geology.core.GeoBase.find_properties() to find rock/structural properties or constraint the geological info to fit the rock in AGSO database.

• Feature watex.geology.build_drillholes() can be used to build a specific drillhole manually through the parameter kind.

• Enhancement watex.utils.read_data() is now able to read data in txt and numpy formats (.npy and .npz).

• Enhancement Add Nanshan land subsidence data. watex.datasets.nlogs() accepts henceforth ls for land subsidence as an argument for collection the subsidence data. The parameter years can be used accordingly to get the year of the subsidence.

• Enhancement watex.geology.DSDrill implements watex.watex.geology.DSDrill.set_drillholes() to construct the drilling with valid data passed to the fit method. The drillholes construction expects argument supplied to the ``properties``parameter. However, watex.geology.DSDrill.get_properties() can be used and to get the drillholes parameters before providing the property arguments.
