RStoolbox 0.1.7

New:

• spectralIndices() has a new argument skipRefCheck, which skips the heuristic check for reflectance-like values [0,1] which is run if EVI/EVI2 are requested.
  This can be usefull if clouds with reflectance > 1.5 are part of the image.
• superClass() now returns the geometries which were used for validation, e.g. polygons (under $validation$geometry)
  and also the exact samples taken for validation including cell number and coordinates ($validation$validationSamples)
• added example data-set for spectral library. See ?readSLI
• increased overall test coverage

Changes:

• ESUN lookup tables for radCor() are adjusted to match current USGS reccomendations from: https://landsat.usgs.gov/esun
• spectralIndices() swir wavelength ranges are now defined consistently and correctly.
  Bands formerly provided as swir1 (version <1.7.0) should now (>=1.7.0) be provided as swir2 and former swir2 as swir3 respectively (see docu).
  The actual calculations were correct, but the naming was off.

Fixes:

• fix ggR() and ggRGB() in annotation mode (default). No image was drawn and excessive memory allocation requested (= RStudio crash) (reported by Christian Walther)
• fix spectralIndices() documentation for NDWI. Formula was based on McFeeters1996 but attributed to Gao1996. Now there is NDWI (McFeeters) and NDWI2 (Gao) (reported by Christian Bauer)
• estimateHaze() now ensures correct histogram order, which could be off when raster had to read from disk (reported by Xavier Bailleau).
• readMeta() now makes concise bandnames also for Landsat Collection MTL files.
• fix radCor() for Landsat 4 TM (reported by Thomas Day)
• classifyQA() confidence layer for type='water' now correctly returns only confidence levels in [1,3]
• enable reading ENVI plot files in ASCII mode with readSLI()

Deprecated:

• spectralIndices() index LSWI has been deprecated, as it is identical with the now available NDWI2.
