[ANN] SolarUtils-0.3 released - wrappers for NREL SOLPOS and SPECTRL2 algorithms

[Mark Mikofski]

This update adds two convenience functions:


   1. get_solposAM(location, datetimes, weather) - returns solar positions
   and airmass for arbitrary sequence of datetime vectors [year, month, day,
   hour, minute second].
   2. get_solpos8760(location, year, weather) - returns 8760 annyual hourly
   solar position and airmass for given year.

For example:

>>> location = [35.56836, -119.2022, -8.0]>>> datetimes = [...     (datetime.datetime(2013, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0)...      + datetime.timedelta(hours=h)).timetuple()[:6]...     for h in range(1000)]>>> weather = [1015.62055, 40.0]>>> angles, airmass = get_solposAM(location, datetimes, weather)
