- Update to version 1.4.2:
* The following functions are new in mapping 1.4.2: almanac,
areaquad, auth2geo, con2geo, geo2auth, geo2con, geo2iso,
geo2rect, geodeticarc, geodeticfwd, iso2geo, meridianfwd,
rect2geo, referenceSphere, sph_chk, vincenty, vincentyDirect.
* Bug fixes:
- referenceEllipsoid.m: express semimajor axis of Everest 1830
in meters rather than the original 'Indian feet'
- kmlread.m: fix typo when reading Point data
- shapedraw.m: fix erratic (0, 0) coordinates occurring in
plots.
- shaperead.m: improve reading attributes (bug #61757)
* Code improvements:
- referenceEllipsoid: return no output to screen if called
with just 0 (zero) and an output is requested.
Abbreviations for a few ellipsoids were added.
- replace validation of input reference ellipsoids by calls to
sph_chk.m in several tens of geodesy functions. This makes
for a big code reduction but also adds flexibility for
inputting reference ellipsoids and/or reference sphere.

- Update to version 1.4.1
* The following functions are new in mapping 1.4.1:
angl2str angltostr departure ecef2aer
ecef2enu ecef2enuv ecef2ned ecef2nedv
egm96geoid enu2geodetic enu2ecef enu2ecefv
gc2sc gcxgc gcxsc geodetic2aer
geodetic2enu geodetic2ned ned2aer ned2ecef
ned2ecefv ned2geodetic scxsc str2angle
* Bug fixes:
+ gpxread.m (bug #58701):
- read milliseconds in Time nodes in Tracks, if present.
Time fields in Waypoint sections are still ignored.
- Various other fixes (missing Ele(vation) and Time nodes,
texinfo help text).
+ kmlread.m (bug #58854):
- Accept various mixed time formats.
- Be more flexible regarding missing fields.
Note: kmlread.m is still considered experimental.
Thanks to Geoff Warne for supplying numerous .gpx and .kml
test files and aid in diagnosing issues.
+ roundn.m: much improved Matlab-compatibility
+ angl2str.m: ditto, thanks to Ricardo Fantin da Costa
+ shapedraw: fix some Point geometry plotting logic, return
empty file handle in case of empty shapes
* Code improvements
+ distance.m: improve accuracy for small distances-

- Update to version 1.4.0
* The mapping package now depends on the geometry and io packages. The
(suggested) dependency on the octclip package has been removed.
* The following functions are new in mapping 1.4.0:
aer2ecef aer2enu aer2geodetic aer2ned
axes2ecc antipode closePolygonParts deg2nm
deg2sm dxfdraw dxfparse dxfread
earthRadius ecc2flat ecc2n ecef2geodetic
enu2aer enu2uvw flat2ecc geodetic3ecef
geocentricLatitude geodeticLatitudeFromGeocentric
geodeticLatitudeFromParametric gmlread gpxread
isShapeMultipart kmlread kmzread
majaxis meridianarc minaxis n2ecc
parametricLatitude polycut rad2nm
rad2sm rasterclip rcurve
referenceEllipsoid utmzone wgs84Ellipsoid
* Bug fixes:
shapedraw.m: * Fix color arg. bug when drawing (poly)line
geometries.
* Restore input check order.
* Do not connect multipoint shapes.
shaperead.m: * Fix reading 'line' geometries.
* Ignore shapes with (almost) infinite
coordinates.
* Fix .shx file usage.
* Move file existence check to start of function.
* Fix reading MultiPoint shapefiles.
* Provision for absent M-values in M and Z
shapetypes.
* More robust input validation.
* Properly process BoundingBox limits.
* Fix incompatible dimensions bug when reading
Multipoint files.
* Fix reading selected attributes.
shapewrite.m: * Various fixes (credits to a.o., Martin Kunz,
M.Parkan).
* Properly write missing M-values.
* Fix OOM error when writing large Point type files.
* Fix and overhaul writing requested attributes.
Fixes for bug #53422:
* Unconditionally write .dbf file.
* Fix record lengths for all Point types.
* Fix XY coordinate write order for all Multipoint
types.
* Update .shx header as well.
rasterinfo.m: * Show nr. of bands and bounding box.
* Code improvements
shaperead.m: * Invoke the Clipper library for clipping polylines
and polygons, leading to much improved performance
when invoking the BoundingBox option together with
the Clip option. To use this feature the Octave-
Forge geometry package >= 4.0.0 must be installed
and loaded.
* New features
shapewrite.m: * Allow writing M & Z shape types (Matlab-
incompatible types, yet supported by Octave).

Fri Jun 10 17:59:08 UTC 2016 - dmitry_r@opensuse.org
- Update to version 1.2.1
* New functions: rasterread, rasterinfo, rasterdraw, gdalread,
wrapToPi, wrapTo2Pi, wrapTo180, wrapTo360,
* New features
- Reading GIS raster data.
- mapshow.m: drawing raster data is now supported.
- shapedraw.m: drawing speed of filled polygons and multipatches
is much improved
