• Removed use of sf package in e_GLMWorkflow vignette.
  • Added possibility to specify method in interpolateRaster() and smoothRaster() using method argument as in fields::Tps().
  • Added verticalTransect() for visualizing vertical slices through multi-layered spatRaster objects.
  • Updated bad URLs for two citations to archived version.
  • Updated blendColor() argument documentation.
  • Fixed messy axis labels when graticules are plotted for rasters.
  • Enhanced testing
  • More robust manual plot scaling, including rounding.
  • scaleRange argument added to oneRasterPlot().
  • MESS3D now calculated using modEvA::MESS() instead of dismo::mess().
  • Removed dependency on raster and rgdal. Raster visualizations now done with terra and include optional graticule plotting.
  • Added function to generate SpatRaster template with input SpatVector points centered on template cells.
  • Fixed messy axis labels when graticules are plotted for rasters.
  • Addressed ERRORs in vignettes resulting from package updates to rnaturalearth.
  • Addressed ERRORs on CRAN resulting from package updates on which voluModel depends.
  • marineBackground() updated to use terra and sf packages, now returns a SpatVector object instead of a SpatialPolygons object.
  • Vignettes updated to reflect the changes.
  • Default rasterComp() plotting colors have been adjusted to increase contrast
  • oneRasterPlot() adjusted to accept “n” argument for viridis() color scales
  • MOre explicit code in “Introduction”” and “Visualization”” vignettes
  • Added verbose switch to mute messages about which columns are being interpreted as x, y, and/or z coordinates to all relevant functions (default verbose = TRUE)
  • Updated license from ACM to GPL-3
  • Fixed a bug in error handling for marineBackground()
  • Addressed an error on some platforms when “buff” in marineBackground() was not specified.
  • Updated metadata on funding source
  • Adjust testing to comply with CRAN
  • Overhauled vignettes–more detailed, special topics
  • Reduced space footprint, increased speed
  • First release for CRAN
  • Added Zenodo-generated DOI
  • The package was created.
