Changes:
- obspy.core:
* Inventory objects have been adapted to StationXML 1.1 for details on
changes see #2510 and
https://github.com/FDSN/StationXML/blob/master/Changes.md
* Fixed import of custom plugins (see #2423)
* Fixed "==" comparison for Stream and Trace which was very slow in case of
traces with >1e6 samples (see #2377)
* Added almost_equal method for Stream and Trace classes (see #2286).
* Casting FDSN identifiers to strings upon setting in the stats dictionary
(see #1997).
* UTCDateTime objects will now always evaluate equal if their string
representations are equal (see #2049).
* UTCDateTime objects now issue depreciation warnings when setting any
attributes outside of init, or comparing UTCDateTime objects with
different precisions (see #2077).
* UTCDateTime objects can now accept hour, minute, second, and microsecond
values greater than their normal limits by setting the strict keyword
argument to False (see #2232).
* Fixed UTCDateTime(..., julday=366) for non-leap years. This was returning
January 1st of the next year in case of non-leap years being used. Now it
properly raises an out-of-bounds ValueError (see #2369)
* When reading StationXML/SC3ML, make sure to properly read empty string
fields as empty strings instead of "None" (see #2519 and #2527)
* Better ISO8601 detection for UTCDateTime objects and UTCDateTime(...,
iso8601=False) now completely disables ISO8601 handling (see #2447)
* Added replace method to UTCDateTime class (see #2077).
* Added remove method to Inventory class (see #2088).
* Added id property to WaveformStreamID (see #2131).

(see #1607)
* Correctly splitting masked arrays in Trace objects for a couple of corner

inheritance. (see #1507)
* Reference time not written to SAC file when made from scratch
(see #1575)
* Reinforce ASCII encoding in reading non-ASCII SAC files regardless of

metadata mismatch (see #1506)
- obspy.taup:
* Allow for more than 10 phases with identical names (can happen for certain
custom models, see #1593).
1.0.2: (doi: 10.5281/zenodo.49636)
- obspy.core:
* Added workaround for numpy issue where many FFTs of various lengths fill
a cache that never gets cleared, effectively creating a memory leak
(see #1424).
* Trace.filter and Stream.filter don't work on masked arrays anymore because
it produced unpredictable results due to the un-initialized data-chunk.
The uninitialized masked gap is now also initialized to np.nan in case
of floating point data which and a consistent fill value in case of
integer data. (see #1363)
- obspy.clients.fdsn:
* Fixing issue with location codes potentially resulting in unwanted data
to be requested. (see #1422)
* Included low-gain seismometers in default channel filters in
mass-downloader, also included non-oriented channels by default
(see #1373).
- obspy.db:
* Fixed a bug in obspy-indexer command line script (see #1369,
command line script was not working, probably since 0.10.0)
- obspy.imaging:
* Fixed a bug that leads to pressure/tension color blending when plotting
semi-transparent DC beachball patches (i.e. with "alpha" not equal to 1,
see #1464)
* Fixed a bug when plotting non-DC beachball patches without fill colors
(i.e. with "nofill=True", see #1464)
* Fix arbitrary units in waveform section plot's offset axis, making it
possible to add customizations to the plot afterwards (see #1382, see

twice. (#1376)
* Fix writing empty network/station/channel codes in WaveformStreamID
objects to QuakeML. (see #1483)
- obspy.io.sac:
* Try to set SAC distances (dist, az, baz, gcarc) on read, if "lcalda" is
true. If "dist" header is found, distances aren't calculated.
* SACTrace class returns header values as native Python types instead of
NumPy types.
* SACTrace.iqual is no longer accepts enumerated string values, but
arbitrary integer values. (see #1472)
* SACTrace.read now replaces non-ASCII and null-termination characters in
string headers with whitespace unless the "debug_strings=True" flag is
used. (see #1432)

filter when using Nyquist frequency (or higher) as high corner of the
passband (see #1451)
- obspy.taup:
* Fixing path for Pn. (see #1392)
1.0.1: (doi: 10.5281/zenodo.48254)
- General:
* Some methods might have unnecessarily upcasted float32 arrays to float64.
Now methods for which it makes sense and which don't lose accuracy don't
upcast float32 arrays. Integers are still upcasted. Trace.resample() will
also no longer return the original dtype which might have resulted in a
large loss of accuracy but it now always returns float64 arrays.
(see #1302)
- obspy.core:
* Trace.normalize() does no longer divide by zero in case an all-zeros
data trace is being used. (see #1343)
* Inventory.select() and consorts now behave as expected even with empty
child elements. (see #1126, #1348)
* Code formatting is no longer checked for clean release versions. Thus
updates to the linters no longer break the tests for releases.
(see #1312)
* remove_response(..., pre_file=None, plot=True) works again. (see #1320)
- obspy.clients.arclink:
* Restored ArcLink encryption support. (see #1352, #1347)
- obspy.clients.fdsn:
* Local URLs are now recognized as valid URLs. (see #1309)
* Some bug fixes for the mass downloader. (see #1293, #1304)
* The NOA node has been added to the list of known nodes.
(see 2347a25714bc3e16068031f4b6138fafd627d34e)
- obspy.io.sac:
* More automatic merging of SAC and ObsPy headers. The new `obspy.io.sac`
modules thus behaves more like the old one and more in line with
expectations of users. (see #1285)
* No more out of bounds errors when assigning coordinates. (see #1300)
* The evdp header can be set again. (see #1345)
* Correctly propagating sampling rate changes to the SAC headers.
(see #1317)
* Always set nvhdr, leven, lovrok, iftype to ensure valid SAC files.
(see #1204)
- obspy.io.xseed:
* The Parser.get_paz() method now works with multiple blockette 53s.
(see #1281)
- obspy.taup
* Fixed wrong azimuth direction for paths > 180 degrees distance (see #1289)

* Fixed issue with taup cache function on Python 2.7. (see #1308)
1.0.0: (doi: 10.5281/zenodo.46151)
- General:
* Requirements have been increased to reflect latest distributions:
* Removed support for Python 2.6.
* Added support for Python 3.5.
* matplotlib >= 1.1.0 is now required.
* numpy >= 1.6.1 is now required
* scipy >= 0.9.0 is now required
* Reorganized the submodule structure. We provide a deprecation path so the
old imports will continue to work for one ObsPy version.
* Consistent naming scheme across the code base. This results in some
functions having different names. Most things that worked with ObsPy 0.10
will continue to work with this version, but starting with the next
version they will fail. Pay attention to the deprecation warnings.
* Support for additional waveform data formats:
- Read support for the ASCII format for waveforms from the K-NET and
KiK-net strong-motion seismograph networks.
* Support for additional event data formats:
- CMTSOLUTION files used by many waveform solvers.
- ESRI shapefile write support, useful in GIS applications (see #1066)
- Google Earth KML output.
* Support for additional station data format:
- The FDSN web service station text format can now be read.
- Read support for the NIED's moment tensor TEXT format (see #1125)
- Google Earth KML output.
- Read support for SeisComP3 inventory files.
- obspy.core:
* New method for generating sliding windows from Stream/Trace windows.
(see #860)
* Stream/Trace.slice() now has the optional `nearest_sample` argument from
Stream/Trace.trim().
* Trace.remove_response() now has `plot` option to show/output a plot of all
individual steps of instrument response removal in frequency domain
(see #1116).
* New method Stream/Trace.remove_sensitivity() to remove instrument
sensitivity
* Fix incorrect parsing of some non-ISO8601 date/time strings. (see #1215)
* Added plotting method to Event (customizable subplots from a selection
of map, beachball and farfield radiation plots, see #1192)
- obspy.clients.fdsn:
* Replace FDSN webservice shortcut `NERIES` with `EMSC` and deprecate the
`NERIES` shortcut, will be removed in a future release (see #1146).
* Now requests gzipped data for the XML files. Much smaller files!
* The station service can now also be used to download files in the text
format. This has limited information but is much faster.
* New mass downloader to assist in downloading data across a large number
of FDSN web services.
* Catch invalid URLs when initialising Client and avoid confusing error
messages (see #1162)
- obspy.clients.filesystem.sds:
* New client to read data from local SDS directory structure (see #1135).
* Command line script `obspy-sds-report` to generate html page with
information on latency, data availability percentage and number of gaps
for a local SDS archive (see #1202)
- obspy.clients.neries:
* Removed the dedicated client. Data can still be accessed by using the FDSN
client.
- obspy.clients.syngine:
* New client for the IRIS Syngine service to retrieve custom synthetic
seismograms.
- obspy.imaging:
* Experimental support for Cartopy when plotting maps. Use the `method`
argument to functions that plot maps to select between Basemap or Cartopy.
* New default colormap for all plots. A backport of the new viridis colormap
from matplotlib is available for those using older matplotlib releases.
* Added plotting routines for farfield radiation patterns of moment tensors
- obspy.io.kml:
* New module for Google KML output of Inventory and Catalog objects
(e.g. for use in Google Earth)
- obspy.io.mseed:
* Upgrade to libmseed 2.16
- obspy.io.seiscomp.sc3ml:
* New module reading SeisComP3 inventory files to ObsPy inventory objects
(see #1182).
- obspy.io.shapefile:
* New module for ESRI shapefile write support (see #1066)
- obspy.io.stationtxt:
* New module reading the FDSN station files.
- obspy.signal:
* Switch to second-order sections for filters; backported from SciPy 0.16.0
(see #1028)
* New Lanczos interpolation/resampling (see #1101)
* Higher order detrending methods (see #1173)
* PPSD (see #931, #1108, #1130, #1187):
- Algorithm for PSD computation was improved, especially affecting results
at long periods (for detailed discussion see #931 and #1108).
- Keywords `paz` and `parser` were removed in favor of new keyword
`metadata`. PPSD now accepts `metadata` in a much wider range
of formats:
* Inventory objects (e.g. from StationXML or from FDSN webservice)
* obspy.io.xseed Parser objects (e.g. from dataless SEED file)
* filename of a RESP file
* dictionary with poles and zeros information (like in
prior versions)
Most old codes should still work, issuing a deprecation warning, but
old code that specifies *both* `paz` and `parser` keywords will raise
an exception.
- Whenever possible (i.e. when using for `metadata` an Inventory,
a Parser or a RESP file), response calculation now takes into account
the full response (all stages) as opposed to only using the poles and
zeros response stage (as was done in previous versions when using a
Parser object). When using a poles and zeros dictionary response
calculation is unchanged (as no information on other stages is
available, of course).
- PPSD now stores the psd for each time segment that gets processed,
instead of only storing the stacked histogram. That way, differing
custom stacks with various selection criteria (e.g. time of day, by
weekday, etc.) can now be made from the same processed data
(see #1130).
- New save/load mechanism using numpy .npz binary format that circumvents
some problems with the old pickle mechanism:
`PPSD.save_npz()` and `PPSD.load_npz()` (and `PPSD.add_npz()` to add
data from additional npz files)
- Change default colormap to new obspy default sequential colormap
(matplotlibs new viridis colormap). The old PQLX colormap is provided by
`obspy.imaging.cm.pqlx` and can be used with
`PPSD.plot(..., cmap=...)`.
- new option `PPSD.plot(..., cumulative=True)` for a cumulative plot of
the histogram, i.e. a non-exceedence percentage visualization, similar
to the `percentile` option.
- x axis in `PPSD.plot()` can be switched to frequency in Hz with
`PPSD.plot(..., xaxis_frequency=True)` (see #1130)
- changes to special handling of rotational: now handled by kwarg
`special_handling="ringlaser"` (kwarg `is_rotational_data` is
deprecated, see #916)
- special handling option for hydrophone data (no differentiation, see
#916)
- bin width on frequency axis can now be controlled using
`PPSD(..., frequency_bin_width_octaves=...)` (in fractions of octaves,
default is the old fixed setting of 1/8 octaves as in PQLX)
- obspy.taup
* Added support for nd file format for input velocity models. Allows for
named discontinuities at arbitrary depths allowing for less Earth like
models (see #1147).
* Added three methods (`get_travel_times_geo()`, `get_pierce_points_geo()`
