Recent Releases of NAPS Data Analysis Toolbox
NAPS Data Analysis Toolbox - v0.3.1
Time Zones, Zip
- Sites are now time zone aware. Continuous data is now stored with a consistent GMT timestamp instead of in local time. Exports are more clear about their time format.
- Added support for zipping (compressing) the output files for the data extractor, data query and heat map tools.
- Minor fix to keep the continuous SO2 pollutant name consistent.

NAPS Data Analysis Toolbox - v0.2.8
Odds and Ends
- Added an option to specify the analysis method name for both continuous and integrated heat maps and data queries. Too many methods are still labelled a N/A though, I'll be working on tracking down the metadata files and labelling them correctly.
- NO, NO2 & NOX had their units set to ug/m^3 instead of ppb, for continuous data. This is now fixed.
- PM2.5 and PM2.5-10 values are now extracted from the mass columns of the older DICHOT and PART25 integrated data reports.

NAPS Data Analysis Toolbox - v0.2.1
Heat maps! Heat maps! Heat maps!
The brand new heat map generator tools are now ready and are extremely useful for data analysis. I have included several examples of them in the README.
The rendering of these heat maps was entirely written from scratch. The next steps will be to make a few small enhancements to add more customization and flexibility. Then I'll do some code clean-up and spin the heatmap generation into its own GitHub project so others can benefit from it.

NAPS Data Analysis Toolbox - v0.2.0
Introducing a new query tool for both continuous and integrated data that allows for fully dynamic queries and saves the results to a CSV file. See the README for details on how to run these new query tools.
Also, new heat map generation tools. These heat maps are a work-in-progress; they render correctly but could benefit from some spit and polish.
