Changelog

[0.3.2] - 2025.01.15

Changed

Structural Changes: Moved DataManager into the resource_manager module for better organization.
Code Simplification: Reduced complexity and redundancy in land distribution logic within distribution.py and geo_distribution.py.

[0.4.0] - 2025.01.15

Added

New Features: Introduced landcover_optimisation class, used to categorize the spared area with an optimizer, Pyomo. This is used alongside the parameters and constraints to calculate the optimum land use change for each category.
- Note that this is not always the same as the requested spared area due to the constraints.
- Added additional functionality to output the actual areas achieved from spared area alone.
- Optimization has been built into both the default and geo goblin models.
Caching: Introduced caching, which significantly speeds up performance.

Fixed

Bug Fixes: Fixed various bugs in the land distribution and optimization logic.
Performance: Improved the performance of the land distribution algorithm.

Testing

Additional Testing: Added comprehensive tests for the new landcover_optimisation class and related functionalities.
