Release Notes

New Features

Add a new function for getting Daymet data from Microsoft's Planetary Computer called get_bystac. Although this function can be much faster than get_bygeom, currently, it gives access to Daymet v4.2 from 1980 to 2020. As discussed here, the Daymet v4.5 will be added to the Planetary Computer in the future. Until then, for accessing the latest version of Daymet (v4.5) you need to use get_bygeom. Additionally, this function requires fsspec, dask, zarr, and pystac-client packages.
Make separate_snow a standalone, pure, and public function. Now, it can be used like so: pydaymet.separate_snow.
Change the length unit from km to m for get_bygeom.

The potential_et function uses py3dep.add_elevation function but the CRS info gets lost in the process for the new elevation variable. This version fixes this issue by adding the CRS info to the elevation variable.
Change PetParams class from NamedTuple to dataclass for better performance and consistency. Now, it has a new classmethod called fields that returns a list of the four fields of the class.
