The GEOS team is please to announce the release of GEOS 3.14.0! This release contains some new features and many behaviour and performance improvements accrued over the past 12 months.
The source release is available at https://libgeos.org/usage/download/ Thank you to everyone who contributed to this release! - New things: - Add clustering functions to C API (GH-1154, Dan Baston) - Ported LineDissolver (Paul Ramsey) - Ported CoverageCleaner (Paul Ramsey) - Add GEOSGridIntersectionFractions to C API (GH-1295, Dan Baston) - Add functions to interrupt processing in a specific thread/context (GH-803, Dan Baston) - Add "geos-targets.cmake" to build tree to allow building other software against GEOS build without installing first (GH-1269, Dan Baston) - Add GEOSCoordSeq_hasZ, GEOSCoordSeq_hasM (GH-1256, Aurele Ferotin) - Add GEOSCoordSeq_createWithDimensions, GEOSCoordSeq_setM, GEOSCoordSeq_getM (GH-1246, Dan Baston) - Add GEOSGeoJSONWriter_setOutputDimension (GH-1260, Aurele Ferotin) - Add GEOSGeom_transformXYZ (GH-1157, Aurele Ferotin) - Add GEOSisSimpleDetail (GH-1296, Dan Baston) - Breaking Changes: - C++17 is now required (GH-1144) - Stricter WKT parsing (GH-1241, @freemine) - GEOSCoordSeq_setOrdinate returns an error if the sequence does not have the specified ordinate (GH-1245, Dan Baston) - Fixes/Improvements: - Fix ConcaveHullOfPolygons nested shell handling (GH-1169, Martin Davis) - Fix RelateNG for computing IM for empty-nonempty cases (Martin Davis) - Fix TopologyPreservingSimplifier/TaggedLineString to avoid jumping components (JTS-1096, Martin Davis) - Fix WKTWriter for small precisions and with trim enabled (GH-1199, Mike Taves) - Fix BufferOp to increase length of segments removed by heuristic (GH-1200, Martin Davis) - Improve RelateNG performance for A/L cases in prepared predicates (GH-1201, Martin Davis) - Improve OffsetCurve to handle mitre joins for polygons (Martin Davis) - Fix inscribed circle initialization (GH-1225, Benoit Maurin) - Fix overlay heuristic for GeometryCollections with empty elements (GH-1229, Martin Davis) - Add ring buffer hole removal heuristic (GH-1233, Martin Davis) - Fix buffer element erosion for negative distance and remove overlay deps (GH-1239, Martin Davis) - Fix OverlayNG coordinate dimension handling for EMPTY geometries (GH-1258, Martin Davis) - Fix DepthSegment comparison logic (really this time) (GH-1266, Martin Davis) - Change CoverageGapFinder to return polygons (Martin Davis) - Update DiscreteFrechetDistance to new algorithm (GH-1274, Paul Ramsey)
