Note

The Release Notes for V.3.00.06 are written after releasing the version. The list of changes is not complete and just marks the highlites.

The list of backports however is complete.

Features

  • all ebas3_… programs are now available as ebas_… alias. E.g. ebas3_list_ds is now also available as ebas_list_ds (is actually the same program). This is the next step of slowly phasing out the old ebas2 programs. If ebas2 programs (and data from the EBAS2 database) are needed, they are still available in /opt/ebas/bin.
  • new program ebas_set_project for changing project associations of datasets.
  • ebas_delete: added some safety features (confirmation needed when deleting data from more then one instrument (or station).
  • changed component name chemiluminesc to chemiluminescence_photometer. ebas_insert will support the old name still as a legacy name and translate the instrument name while importing.
  • improved unit conversion mechanism during import (currently only factors for NOx components available)

Backported from future releases

  • ebas_insert: NOx conversion (‘nmol/mol’ to ‘ug N/m3’) works now also for ‘ppb’ and ‘ppbv’
