.. topic:: What is it for?

   **NoboTouls** supplies a suite of python tools to manage, modify
   and plot HOBO station data (measured and data logged with products
   of the US-company http://www.onsetcomp.com/) for the
   **Aichfeld-Project**.  To avoid copyright violations the name of
   this program suite was changed from HOBO-Tools to Nobo-Touls and
   because of simplicity (*find & replace* reasons) *HOBO-files* are
   from now on called **NOBO-files**.

   Not all of the functionality here is provided by the much more
   comfortablly to use free *Onset*(TM)-Program `HOBOware
   <http://www.onsetcomp.com/products/software/hoboware>`_

Use is made of following python libraries:

* http://www.numpy.org/
* http://matplotlib.org/
* http://matplotlib.org/basemap
* http://gdal.org/python/
* http://www.scipy.org/

.. topic:: New

  * Nov 12, 2016: **NoboTouls Version 0.0.5**: in
    :program:`nobowindmap` and in :program:`nobowindmap2` low winds
    below 2.5 knots are shown with an emtpy wind arrow as direction
    indicator. Only very low winds below 0.1 knots are shown as
    directionless small circels/dots. - The changes were applied in
    module :program:`inout.py` to function/procedure
    :program:`plot_wind`.

  * Sept 18, 2016: **NoboTouls Version 0.0.4** with bug fixes
    concerning :program:`nobowindmap.py` for for Debian Jessie and
    OS-X for dealing with lat, lon - values in map plotting routines

    For those who do not want a complete reeinstall change in module
    :program:`noboinout.py` in  function :program:`def
    plot_windmap` (about line 1406 of module):

    false: ::

      """Plot a single wind barb with u,v in map 'bmap' at lat, lon"""
      ...
      x, y = bmap(lon, lat)
      ...

    correct: ::

      """Plot a single wind barb with u,v in map 'bmap' at lat, lon"""
      ...
      x, y = bmap(float(lon), float(lat))
      ...
