  • includes end-to-end example function

• added dustapprox.tools.model_characteristics module to help assess model systematics

  • can compute a sparse model grid

  • evaluates systematics and makes some plots (see Assessing models accuracy and systematics)

• adopted dust_extinction as provider of dust extinction curves

  • outsourced definitions of extinction curves to experts

  • allows dustapprox to include other curves (e.g. G23)
