Release Notes

Version 1.3.2  (12 March 2025)

• Fixed formatting issues with the Portable Pad Calibration tool.

• Fixed a bug in the Portable Pad Calibration tool relating to spectra livetimes

Version 1.3.0  (4 February 2025)

• Removed restrictions on NASVD By Cluster, Topographic Corrections, and some types of radio-element anomaly detection. 

• Removed Hydrocarbons as an anomaly type.

• All GammaSpec functionality now available in the Free Version.

Version 1.2.5  (11 December 2024)

• Added a utility to the Potable menu to facilitate summing multichannel spectra down to 256 channels. Input and output is via ASCII text files.

• Fixed a few minor formatting issues.

Version 1.2.4  (8 October 2024)

• Updated the Topographic Correction tool to handle large surveys and DEM's.

• Fixed a bug in Create Clusters that crashed the program when there was a mismatch between the vector and amplitude NASVD files.

• Increased the lower channel limit for Compton removal.

• Fixed a bug in Sum256Channels - tool aborting when number of channels not 256.

• Updated several tools that were not checking the integrity of the base and gain fields prior to running.

Version 1.2.3  (12 July 2024)

• Fixed a fatal error on opening Geosoft databases on some systems  due to missing dll's.

• Fixed an bug with GammaSpec crashing when upward-looking detector spectra not present in database.

• Updated the "Aircraft and Cosmic" and "Radon Stripping (Over Water)" Geosoft databases in the demonstration data to include upward-looking spectra.

• Tightened checks on cosmic and aircraft spectra being read from text file.

Version 1.2.2  (8 July 2024)

• Calibration of portable spectrometers and detection of cesium anomalies now included in the Free Version.

• Added a new tool (Utilities|Save Nasvd-Smoothed Spectra) to save NASVD-smoothed spectra to a new database field.

• Added a new tool (Utilities|Window Spectra) to sample custom windows and save the window data to a new database field.

• The chart Tool Tips (the information displayed when you hover the mouse over a data point) now includes the channel energy (if spectra have been energy calibrated).

• Updated the pseudo-color imaging of grid data to incorporate a hill shade.

• Fixed various bugs in some of the tools related to entering alias/parameter values directly into textBoxes using the keyboard.

• Fixed minor formatting issues in some of the tool log files.

• Updated GammaSpec Help to reflect the addition of the new tools.
