himach 1.0.1 (2026-01-16)

• Patch of missing global declaration, previously hidden by use of dplyr.
• Fix typo in reference to vignette.

himach 1.0.0 (2025-07-13)

• Upgrade to major release, because himach has been mature and stable for quite a while.
• Dependency upgrade: replace use of 'quiet' option.
• Bug fixes: out-dated link in vignette, dependency on R for pipe.

himach 0.3.2 (2023-09-20)

• New graphics: Route density charts, for routes combined with forecasts. See the Advanced Vignette.
• Bug fixes: package dependencies, package documentation.

himach 0.3.1 (2022-12-05)

• Bug fixes: Prettier cutting of background map at dateline.
• Dependency upgrades

• using edition 3 of testthat
• removing deprecated syntax in tidyverse

himach 0.3.0 (2022-06-09)

• New graphics options: in map_routes colour lines by a flight frequency variable or by number of accelerations to supersonic; now can also plot a simple speed/distance/time/altitude profile with profile_routes.
• Added a section on cache housekeeping to the advanced vignette.
• Bug fixes: Solved map 'leakage' at dateline, and make_AP2 copes with vectors of airport pairs correctly now.

himach 0.2.3 (2021-12-01)

• Fixes for solaris running old GDAL: switch to storing crs_Atlantic etc as strings.

himach 0.2.2 (2021-11-21)

• Fixed crash when routing over very short hops (say for re-positioning flights).
• (development) Bug fixes: map leakage solved, summarise_routes now works with 3-letter airport codes as well as 4 (though default is still ICAO codes, not IATA codes for airports).
• Removed use of Travis for code coverage.

himach 0.2.1 (2021-06-17)

• Patch so that tests work ok with sf v1.0+.

himach 0.2.0

• More precise estimate of time penalty for acceleration from subsonic to supersonic cruise (or v.v.). Perhaps 1% difference in timings as a result.
• Faster map plots, since maps are simplified (a little) now, by default.

himach 0.1.2 (2021-04-30)

• Tweak test for CRAN.
• Fixed issue when using package functions without loading package.

himach 0.1.1 (2021-04-23)

• Fixing check errors on other platforms
  • Errors involving "NULL: PROJ available?" appear linked to this 'older GDAL' issue in sf. So implemented a work-around in various examples and vignettes.
  • Use make_aircraft(warn = FALSE) in examples & vignettes just to eliminate warnings. Still think this merits a warning in normal use, because the default aircraft are unlikely to be fit for purposes beyond testing.
  • bug fix: Mach 0.84 comparison from summarise_routes now uses 0.84 instead of 0.85.

himach 0.1.0 (2021-04-15)

• First version targeted for CRAN release.
• Fixes a number of bugs in the avoid-area functionality.

himach 0.0.2

• Major overhaul of the approach to smoothing from a Dijkstra-style route to a great-circle route, to handle the 1% of cases where the old approach didn't work well.
• Further speed improvements.

himach 0.0.1

• First version using the s2 capabilities of the sf package. This gives more robust plotting, and a number of internal speed improvements.
