Key updates in version 5.0 of the Radar Software Toolkit (RST) include:
All fitting algorithms are now called by the make_fit binary, and the following binaries have been removed: make_lmfit, make_fitex2, make_fitex1.There is no default ACF fitting algorithm in make_fit. The user should specify the fitting algorithm using a command line option.Added the LMFit2.0 fitting algorithmC & IDL software to read TDIFF values from a calibration file (sample file included)New fields in the fitacf file format: algorithm, tdiff, elv_error and elv_fittedNew command line option in map_addhmb to constrain the HMB based on a spectral width threshold (no change to default behavior)New virtual height model for midlatitude radars and modularized rpos_v2 librarySpeed improvements to map_grd and map_addhmb (~3x)New GUI for displaying real-time fit data (fitacfclientgui binary)Updates to the data simulator (sim_real and make_sim)New command line options in field_plot to correctly display the radar field of viewImproved color control in plotting routinesUpdated documentation
