Replaced Aleutian Islands survey grid shapefile
(inst/extdata/ai_grid.shp) with a new version that corrects
mislabeled stratum IDs. New shapefile provided by Ned Laman
(NOAA/AFSC).
Replaced Aleutian Islands survey area shapefile
(inst/extdata/ai_area.shp) with a version that excludes
Bowers Ridge.
FUNCTIONALITY CHANGES
Modified get_base_layers() to filters out Aleutian Islands
survey.grid cells with STRATUM >= 800 (Bowers Ridge). This
change was made because Bowers Ridge stations are not part
of the standard survey grid, are not included in stratum area
calculations, are not used for index production and have not
been sampled by a RACE Aleutian Islands bottom trawl survey
since 1986. Bowers Ridge grid cells are still included in the
Aleutian Islands survey grid shapefile (/inst/extdata/ai_grid.shp).
get_base_layers() now filters out Aleutian Islands and Gulf
of Alaska survey.grid cells with STRATUM=0 (land). STRATUM 0
cells are still included in the survey grid shapefiles for
the Aleutian Islands (/inst/extdata/ai_grid.shp) and Gulf of
Alaska (/inst/extdata/goa_grid.shp).
NEW FEATURES
Added key.title.units argument to make_idw_map() that allows
users to use their own unit label instead of the default
'CPUE (kg/ha)'. Example usage:
make_idw_map(key.title.units = 'CPUE (#/ha)')
Added internal .check_region() function to check that user-
specified region choices are valid and avoid cryptic error
messages.
