December 2025 — CanadianClimateDataPortal/climatedata-wp-theme: Delivered key S2D improvements and UX fixes that increase data reliability, transparency, and visualization clarity. Implemented a real API-driven S2D download workflow with standardized file naming, added a user-facing notification when no data is returned for dataset requests, stabilized map rendering for empty S2D data, and corrected color mapping boundaries for probability bars in location popups. These changes reduce troubleshooting effort, improve user trust, and provide more accurate, consistent data presentations across the portal.
