wmm 1.1.1 (2021-09-06)

  1. Removed WMM coefficient files and URLs.
  2. Adding note to README re: WMM output as predictions and referenced IGRF.

wmm 1.1.0 (2021-03-17)

  1. Updated Gauss coefficients for WMM2020.
  2. Significantly improved numerical stability by using closed-form equation for associated Legendre polynomials, instead of recursion.
  3. Improved speed by ~7x by using multidimensional arrays.
  4. Per WMM2020, this version now displays a blackout zone warning when the horizontal intensity is below 6000 nT.
