Display
- Major speedup when zooming in on images. Less memory is used when zooming in.
- Fixed some memory issues. The display does not longer keep a lot of memory in use.
- It is possible to hide or show the panel with the panner and the zoom

NaiveProjectionTask replaces NearestNeighbourProjectionTask for spectral cube creation
Level2 spectral cubes are now generated by NaiveProjectionTask. NaiveProjectionTask creates spectral cubes by averaging flux values within each pixel. The execution speed of NaiveProjectionTask has been greatly improved - a set of high resolution spectra is now processed in approximately 10 seconds.
Browse product image for observations
Within Hipe, observations with spectral cubes (observations with multiple raster positions or jiggle positions) now display an image summarizing the cubes. The image consists of the median flux values for each pixel of the SLW and SSW unapodized cubes. For observations without spectral cubes (sparse observations, no jiggle), an image showing a plot spectra of the central detectors is displayed.
New Module: spire_ia_pipeline_spec_util
This module contains helper classes used in the SPIRE spectrometer pipelines.
FilterChannelsTask
This task removes or retains a list of channels from an SDT, SDI, or SDS.
RemoveOutOfBandTask
This task removes out-of-band spectral components from an input SDS.
ObservationLayoutTask
This task determines the characteristics of an observation, namely point numbers, jiggle numbers, resolution, and building blocks IDs, and places them into a
SpecObsContents
dataset.
MakeSameOpdsTask
This task makes all interferograms in an SDI have an OPD range consistent with the commanded resolution, truncating the data if necessary.
MergeFtsBuildingBlocksTask
This task merges multiple SDIs and NHKTs into a single SDI and NHKT.
