Export 1.10
Released in April, 2000
Enhancements

  • Added ability to export basins and other vectors in ESRI shapefile format


Export 1.07
Released in December, 1999
Bug Fixes

  • Exported basin attributes in ARC/INFO format now include forecast groups
  • Corrected formatting issues concerning the expanded basin attributes


Export 1.06
Released in November, 1999
Enhancements

  • Expanded basin attributes supported for exported Arc/INFO format
  • Basin AML corrected for use with expanded attributes.
  • Note that apostrophes in text fields will be replaced with spaces in the exported file to maintain Arc/INFO compatibility


Export 1.05
Released in August, 1999
General

  • Export to WinQPF filters basins to 1000 vertices. (Used to be 3000)
Bug Fixes
  • Selecting from list dialog bug fixed.


Export 1.04
Released in June 1999
General

  • Failed export cleans up after itself
  • Default export vector precision set to 6 decimal places from 4

  • Calculating major rivers is much faster
  • Filtered export optimized (slightly faster)


Export 1.03
Released in June, 1999
General

  • Miscellaneous GUI tweaks involving fonts
  • Exporting into WHFS will use description field if available, otherwise will use COMS5 Handbook Id
Enhancements
  • Support for expanded basin attributes : Elevation zone boundaries, Mean/Minimum/Maximum slope, elevation, and aspect. Basin layers will need to be opened in IHABBS in order to take advantage of this. (Otherwise warning messages will appear when the user queries or exports a basin.)
  • Query basin now has an option for "Less" or "More", where the user may view either the traditional basin attributes or the expanded version which includes the fields described above.


Export 1.02
Released in January, 1999
Enhancements

  • Allows user to export "by attribute". In this fashion, vector layers can be exported by their name, and basins can be exported by name, COM5 id, CWA id, or Forecast group.
