1.0.0rc3 (September 16, 2020)

This is the third 1.0 release candidate.

API Changes

Added quantile score and skill score metrics :pysolarforecastarbiter.metrics.probabilistic.quantile_score :pysolarforecastarbiter.metrics.probabilistic.quantile_skill_score (520) (530)

Update DOE ARM reference dataset with previously missing irradiance data. This change introduced changes to the extra_parameters fields of DOE ARM reference sites stored in the Solar Forecast Arbiter, and existing sites must be updated with new fields. See the solarforecastarbiter/io/reference_observations/arm_reference_sites.json for examples and explanation of the new extra_parameters format. (536)
Add :pysolarforecastarbiter.metrics.deterministic.relative_euclidean_distance (542, 549)
Add :pysolarforecastarbiter.plotting.timeseries.generate_probabilistic_forecast_figure to create timeseries plots for probabilistic forecasts. It should be noted that this new function generates a Plotly figure, as opposed to Bokeh figures which are generated by other functions in this module. (550, 551)
Add opacity to scatter plot markers to improve visibility. (547)
Add support for kwargs in :pysolarforecastarbiter.io.api.request_cli_access_token. (483)

Fix PVDAQ time zones. (537) (540)
Fix missing PVDAQ sites. (539) (540)
Converted NOAA USCRN site elevation to meters. (545)
Fix non-deterministic order and color in time series and scatter plots. (548) (562)
Make scatter plot aspect ratio 1:1 and set same number of grid lines on the x and y axes. (419) (562)
Render W/m^2 with a superscript in time series and scatter plots. (562)
Render report preprocessing results with friendly names (e.g. Event Forecast) instead of class names (e.g. EventForecast). (406)
Correct incorrect timeseries plots used in reports for probabilistic forecasts with axis y. This bug was introduced in Release Candidate 2. (568) (569)
Adjust abbreviation of long reference forecast names to first abbreviate some words and then cut entire words from the site name (521) (571)
Fixed issue with UO SRML reference data fetching that resulted in posting NaN values for data that had not yet been included in SRML files. (543)(572 )
