  repository that match the provided name(s) and return all available datasets for 
  those stations (e.g.entry "WARSZAWA" will also search for: "WARSZAWA-BIELANY", 
  "WARSZAWA-OKECIE", "WARSZAWA-OBSERWATORIUM", etc.)



# climate 1.2.9

* fixes for corrupted header files in `meteo_imgw_` family of functions due to changes in the IMGW-PIB repository

    * skipping corrupted files without breaking the download
    * removed possibility to download stations from IMGW-PIB repository using stations' ID for daily intervals
* Returning all available IMGW-PIB meteorological dataset if provided station name(s) was not found

* re-factoring of unit tests
* documentation build with CI/CD
* updating vignettes and examples, including the way to use climate with Python


# climate 1.0.5

* `meteo_imgw` family of functions supports multiple names as argument - bug fix
* unit tests and code coverage computed with CI/CD
* units added to column labels for `nearest_stations_` set of functions instead of column names for easier processing (e.g. [km] are visible now only as attributes)
* new functions follow lintr settings

# climate 1.0.4

* Function `spheroid_dist` added to improve accuracy of calculations between points, but also avoid installing GIS dependencies (thanks to @kadyb)
* Function `nearest_stations_imgw()` now uses the Vincenty's formula in `spheroid_dist` to calculate the distance between points on a spheroid, not the Euclidean distance (previously results were inaccurate for some specific cases)
* minor bugs fixes and improvements

# climate 1.0.3

* Adding possibility to download BUFR vertical sounding dataset from `http://weather.uwyo.edu/upperair/sounding.html`; extra information with supporting example added to the `sounding_wyoming`'s documentation
