camtrapReport 1.0.64

• Corrected the EOW report tab structure. HTML output retains interactive tabs for abundance metrics, annual density estimates by species, and activity patterns by species, while the print stylesheet exposes every tab panel sequentially in PDF output. References remain an ordinary non-tabbed section. The three modules no longer declare the unused optional patchwork dependency because their panels are rendered separately.
• Added a regression test that verifies the bundled EOW tabsets have nested tab headings and that the reference and appendix sections remain non-tabbed.

camtrapReport 1.0.63

• Added an OpenTopoMap fallback beneath explicitly selected OpenStreetMap backgrounds. Failed OpenStreetMap tiles are transparent so the fallback is revealed, while the privacy-preserving offline background remains the default.
• Added a regression test for the add_report_basemap reference-class method used by the bundled map modules.
• Legacy cached camReport objects that predate the basemap method are upgraded to the current reference-class definition while retaining their stored fields.

camtrapReport 1.0.62

• Resolved jarl diagnostics without changing package behaviour by moving report-selection restoration assignments into cleanup callbacks and using the equivalent !all() form for finite map-bound validation.
• Restored platform-independent path normalization in the profile tests so Windows and Unix-like runners compare the same path representation.

camtrapReport 1.0.61

• Added separate pooled and annual REM report modules. The EOW profile now fits detection, movement-speed, activity, trap-rate, and density parameters independently for each species and sampling year; the standard profile retains the pooled multi-year method for backwards compatibility.
• Corrected REM trap-rate input to sum the Camtrap DP event-level count field as numbers of individuals, with a backwards-compatible row-count fallback when no usable counts are supplied.
• Applied deployment inclusion flags consistently to detection and speed calibration data, added reproducible REM repetition and seed metadata, and separated pooled and annual caches.
• Added an REM analysis signature so obsolete cached REM estimates are cleared when an existing __camReport_Object.rds is loaded.
• Replaced live OpenStreetMap tiles in bundled report modules with a self-contained offline background. Optional CartoDB, Esri, and OpenStreetMap backgrounds remain available through cm$setting$map_basemap.
• Restored the package species palette for multi-species trend figures instead of switching palettes when more than six species are displayed.

camtrapReport 1.0.60

• Added html, pdf, and both compatibility metadata to the report and data-status module registries. Module management now preserves this metadata, and add_Module() and move_Module() can set it explicitly. Module-management functions now also accept the documented dir argument for writable project-level registries.
• Report generation now excludes format-incompatible modules and their orphaned children while leaving the user's attached section selection unchanged.
• Added a non-tabbed appendix_eow module so the EOW profile's data-status sections render as ordinary appendix subsections in HTML and PDF output.
• PDF reports no longer include a table of contents. Print styling also suppresses Bootstrap's appended hyperlink URLs and expands printable tabset content so that non-interactive PDF readers can access every panel.
• Expanded tests and documentation for module-format metadata, EOW appendix structure, PDF routing, print styling, and selection restoration.

camtrapReport 1.0.59

• Added reusable reportProfile objects and bundled default and EOW profiles for selecting ordered ecological and data-status module sets.
• Added qualified report::module and status::module references, including profile-level parent overrides that allow selected status modules to appear below the ecological report appendix without modifying module YAML files.
• Extended section_names() and sections() to inspect and edit profile and data-status selections while retaining their previous default behaviour.
• Added read_profile(), write_profile(), add_profile(), and profile_names() for sharing and registering profile YAML files.
• Added optional static PDF output to report() and status(). PDF generation prints the existing HTML output with pagedown and Chrome or Edge, preserving compatibility with HTML-oriented report modules.
• Added the EOW module variants to the module registry and corrected the malformed text scalar in location_EOW.yml.
• Expanded profile, cross-pool selection, and PDF-routing tests and updated the README, vignettes, reference documentation, and pkgdown configuration.

camtrapReport 1.0.58

• Renamed install_All() to install_all() for consistency with R naming conventions. install_All() remains available as a deprecated compatibility alias for existing code.
• Clarified the report-module architecture and contributor documentation, including the distinction from Shiny modules, the rationale for the Reference Class implementation, and the role of .eval() relative to rlang-style evaluation.
• Improved the README and package website with clearer descriptions and direct example outputs for the Data Status Check and Ecological Report.
• Added the rOpenSci Software Peer Review status badge to the README and package website.
• Expanded deterministic unit coverage for sampling and project metadata, taxonomy lookup fallbacks, module-management dispatch, and nested report object insertion.
• The new tests use in-memory fixtures and mocked external lookups. They do not contact remote services, install packages, or require optional module dependencies.
• Increased locally measured covr::package_coverage() from 73.50% to 77.76%.

camtrapReport 1.0.56

Internal improvements

• Addressed selected static-analysis and good-practice findings in package code without changing the public API or intended outputs.
• Made function arguments explicit and improved portable path and string construction.
• Made character-column handling explicit in selected data frames.
• Retained the dynamic module-evaluation and optional dependency-discovery mechanisms used by bundled and user-provided report modules.

Testing

• Replaced general test assertions with more specific testthat expectations for values, types, comparisons, and object names.
• Confirmed that the complete test suite passes after the internal changes.

camtrapReport 1.0.55

• Revised unit-test expectations in response to findings reported by jarl.

camtrapReport 1.0.54

• Addressed additional static-analysis findings in package code and tests.

camtrapReport 1.0.53

• Improved internal code and tests following static-analysis review.

camtrapReport 1.0.52

• Applied minor internal corrections identified by jarl.

camtrapReport 1.0.51

• Made the coverage-test fixture independent of optional report-module packages and made Pandoc availability explicit in the coverage workflow.
• Added network-independent tests for taxonomy-lookup failure handling.
• Revised the documentation topic for install_All() to avoid a case-insensitive filename collision on Windows.

camtrapReport 1.0.50

• Updated the package manuals and rebuilt the pkgdown website.

camtrapReport 1.0.48

• Revised the package in response to the initial rOpenSci editor assessment.
• Updated install_All() to delegate dependency resolution and installation to pak.
• Documented the opt-in role of install_All() in discovering dependencies from bundled and user-provided report modules.
• Split internal rendering, taxonomy, and spatial utilities into focused files without changing the public API.
• Replaced the earlier example fixture with a documented, relationship-preserving subset of the GMU8_LEUVEN Camtrap DP dataset.
• Removed contact email addresses from the example data because they are not required by examples or automated tests.

camtrapReport 1.0.47

• Improved the worked example, contributor documentation, optional-dependency tests, website navigation, and temporary-file cleanup in response to rOpenSci editor feedback.
• Corrected citation metadata for the package and its associated conference paper.
