Adding 8.5 and 9.5 value chips wasn't a big deal. Adding all 1/2 chips turns out to be a little more complex for any function that estimates Munsell colors from other colorspace coordinates. Working through this in #319.
I noticed when working with the KSSL pedon morphologic companion database recently that there are some non-standard color warnings issued:
non-standard notation in Munsell value, use getClosestMunsellChip()
I was curious if these were obsolete values in the database, but it turns out that
colorvalue
of 8.5 and 9.5 are legitimate choices (on the "white" page). Unlike some chromas (0, 5, 7) the half chip color values are not obsolete in the NASIS domains.Probably these can be handled by interpolation similar to how we handled
colorvalue
2.5 (i.e https://github.com/ncss-tech/aqp/issues/178)There are 56 instances of this in the morphologic database corresponding to KSSL pedons (latest dated 2021-09-14), and 560 total in full NASIS pedon snapshot (latest dated 2024-09-06)
