1.1.0 (2016-10-04)

Bugfixes

• Fixed some minor errors in test suite

Improvements

• We now generate test fixtures from local data instead of remote server (#120)

API Changes

• New function, OBS_LegacyBuilderMetadata, which resolves (#133)
• Creates "dimensional" metadata grabbing functions (OBS_GetAvailableNumerators, OBS_GetAvailableDenominators, OBS_GetAvailableGeometries, OBS_GetAvailableTimespans) which will be used for obtaining metadata in the replacement for the Data Library (CartoDB/design#104). This is also referred to here (CartoDB/design#68).

1.0.7 (2016-09-20)

Bugfixes

• NULL geometries or geometry IDs no longer result in an exception from any augmentation functions (#178)

Improvements

• Automatic tests work for Canada and Thailand

1.0.6 (2016-09-08)

Improvements

• New function structure for Table-level functions which allows to separate the framework logic from the observatory measure functions.

1.0.5 (2016-08-12)

Improvements

• Integration tests moved to src/python/test/, and can be run without hitting any HTTP SQL API.

1.0.4 (2016-07-26)

Bugfixes

• Always default arguments to NULL, which prevents duplication & overwrite by dataservices-api (#173)

1.0.3 (2016-07-25)

Bugfixes

• Raise exception instead of crashing when OBS_GetMeasure is passed a polygon in combination with a non-summable measure (cartodb/issues #9063)
• Unnecessary dependencies on cartodb and plpythonu removed (#161)
• Tests forced to run in-order on all systems (#162)
• Area normalization done by square kilometer instead of square meter for polygons (#158)
• postgres-fdw installed as required in unit test environment (#166)

Improvements

• Added tests to make sure all functions can handle explicit NULL as default (#159)
• Buffer and snaptogrid used to be far more liberal accepting problem geoms (#170)

1.0.2 (2016-07-12)

Bugfixes

• Fix for OBS_GetCategory outside the US (#135)
• OBS_GetMeasure now respects the normalize parameter even when passed a multi/polygon. Previously, no normalization was erroneously assumed.

Improvements

• Automated tests cover Mexico data
• obs_meta is now provisioned during unit tests
• obs_meta is now used during end-to-end tests
• OBS_GetMeasureByID uses obs_meta internally, which should help performance
• OBS_GetCategory uses obs_meta internally, which should help perfromance
• OBS_GetCategory will pick the correct category for an arbitrary polygon (the category covering the highest % of that polygon)
• OBS_GetMeasure has been updated to use obs_meta internally, which should help performance
• OBS_GetMeasure now can be passed "none" and skip normalization by area or denominator for points
• Fixtures are only loaded at the start of the unit test suite, and dropped at the end, instead of at the start/end of each individual test file
• Comment noisy NOTICEs (#73)

1.0.1 (2016-07-01)

Bugfixes

• Fix for ERROR: Operation on mixed SRID geometries #130

1.0.0 (6/27/2016)

• Incremented to 1.0.0 to be in compliance with SemVer, which disallows use of 0.x.x versions. This also reflects that we are already in production.

API Changes

• Added OBS_DumpVersion to look up version data (#118)

Improvements

• Whether data exists for a geom now determined by polygon intersection instead of BBOX overlap (#119)
• Automated tests cover Spanish and UK data (#115)
• Automated tests cover OBS_GetUSCensusMeasure (#105)

Bugfixes

• Geom table can have different geomref_colname than the data table (#123)

0.0.5 (5/27/2016)

• Adds new function OBS_GetMeasureById (#96)

0.0.4 (5/25/2016)

• Updates queries involving US Census measure tags to be more generic (#95)
• Fixes tests which relied on an erroneous subset of block groups (#95)

0.0.3 (5/24/2016)

• Generalizes internal queries to properly pull from multiple named geometry references
• Adds tests for Who's on First boundaries
• Improves automatic fixtures testing script

0.0.2 (5/19/2016)

• Adds Data Observatory exploration functions
• Adds Data Observatory boundary functions
• Adds Data Observatory measure functions
• Adds script to generate fixtures for tests
• Adds script for the automatic testing of metadata
• Adds full documentation for all included functions
• removes cartodb extension dependency

0.0.1 (5/19/2016)

• First iteration of OBS_GetDemographicSnapshot(location Geometry(Point,4326))
