Hi, On behalf of the GDAL/OGR development team and community, I am pleased to announce the release of GDAL/OGR 3.1.0. GDAL/OGR is a C++ geospatial data access library for raster and vector file formats, databases and web services. It includes bindings for several languages, and a variety of command line tools.
http://www.gdal.org/ The 3.1.0 release is a new feature release with the following highlights: * Implement [RFC 75] (https://gdal.org/development/rfc/rfc75_multidimensional_arrays.html): support for multidimensional arrays in MEM, VRT, netCDF, HDF4, HDF5 and GRIB drivers. Read/write for MEM and netCDF. Read/only for others. Add gdalmdiminfo and gdalmdimtranslate utilities. * Implement [RFC 76] (https://gdal.org/development/rfc/rfc76_ogrpythondrivers.html): add capability of writing vector drivers in Python * New GDAL drivers: - [COG](https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/cog.html): write-only, for Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF - [EXR](https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/exr.html): read/write driver, relying on OpenEXR library - [ISG](https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/isg.html): read-only, for geoid models of the International Service for the Geoid - [RDB](https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/rdb.html): read-only, for RIEGL Database .mpx RDB 2 files (#1538) (needs proprietary SDK) * New OGR drivers: - [FlatGeoBuf](https://gdal.org/drivers/vector/flatgeobuf.html): read-support and creation (#1742) - [MapML](https://gdal.org/drivers/vector/mapml.html): read/write driver for experimental web spec * Improved drivers: - OAPIF driver (renamed from WFS3): updated to OGC API - Features 1.0 core spec - GTiff: improve performance of internal overview creation - GTiff: GeoTIFF 1.1 support - Shapefile driver: add read/creation/update support for .shz and .shp.zip - netCDF vector: read/write support for CF-1.8 Encoded Geometries (#1287) - VICAR: multiple improvements and write support (#1855) - DDS: add read support * Other improvements: - gdalwarp: accept output drivers with only CreateCopy() capabilities - [gdal_viewshed](https://gdal.org/programs/gdal_viewshed.html): new utility for viewshed algorithm * Remove GFT driver now that the online service no longer exists (#2050) * New Sphinx-based documentation * Multiple security related fixes (ossfuzz) * Continued code linting (cppcheck, CoverityScan, etc.) More complete information on the new features and fixes in the 3.1.0 release can be found at: https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/blob/v3.1.0/gdal/NEWS The release can be downloaded from: * https://download.osgeo.org/gdal/3.1.0/gdal310.zip - source as a zip * https://download.osgeo.org/gdal/3.1.0/gdal-3.1.0.tar.gz - source as .tar.gz * https://download.osgeo.org/gdal/3.1.0/gdal-3.1.0.tar.xz - source as .tar.xz * https://download.osgeo.org/gdal/3.1.0/gdal-grass-3.1.0.tar.gz - GDAL-GRASS plugin * https://download.osgeo.org/gdal/3.1.0/gdalautotest-3.1.0.tar.gz - test suite * https://download.osgeo.org/gdal/3.1.0/gdal310doc.zip - documentation / website The migration guide can be found at : https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/blob/release/3.1/gdal/MIGRATION_GUIDE.TXT Best regards, Even Spatialys - Geospatial professional services http://www.spatialys.com
