[OSGeo-Discuss] GDAL 3.6.1 is released

[Victoria Rautenbach via Discuss]

News item by Even Rouault
Published at https://www.osgeo.org/foundation-news/gdal-3-6-1-is-released/


On behalf of the GDAL/OGR development team, I am pleased to announce the
release of the GDAL/OGR 3.6.1 bug fix version.

Important: GDAL 3.6.1 officially retracts GDAL 3.6.0 which could cause
corruption of the spatial index of GeoPackage files it created (in
tables with 100 000 features or more): cf
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues/51188 and
https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/6911. GDAL 3.6.1 fixes that issue.
Setting OGR_GPKG_ALLOW_THREADED_RTREE=NO environment variable (at
generation time) also works around the issue with GDAL 3.6.0. Users who
have generated corrupted GeoPackage files with 3.6.0 can regnerate them
with 3.6.1 with, for example, "ogr2ogr out_ok.gpkg in_corrupted.gpkg"
(assuming a GeoPackage file with vector content only)

Consult the release notes for the list of issues addressed :
   https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/blob/v3.6.1/NEWS.md

The sources are available at:

 https://download.osgeo.org/gdal/3.6.1/gdal-3.6.1.tar.xz

[OSGeo-Discuss] OTB version 8.1.0 has been released

[Victoria Rautenbach via Discuss]

*News item by OSMAN JulienPublished at
https://www.osgeo.org/foundation-news/otb-version-8-1-0-has-been-released/
*


Dear OSGeo community,

We are happy to announce that OTB version 8.1.0 has been released!

This minor version brings multiple corrections to the Metadata framework,
in particular with Pleiades products. It also comes with an improvement to
the DEM Handler that won’t read multiple time the same directory. This new
behavior is described in the documentation. The NewFunctorFilter now has a
default value for the radius. And with this release, PyOTB can finally
unleash all it’s power.

The release also fixes a behavior of Superimpose application, which writes
RPC on final products if the initial product is not orthorectified, it also
includes some documentation improvements and dead code removal.

Note about known issues : Some PHR products metadata are missing when using
the DIMAP driver leading to some errors when trying to orthorectify the
product, see the RELEASE_NOTES for more details.

We welcome your feedback and requests on OTB’s GitLab and if you find a
bug, please report it !

Sincerely,
The OTB team.

[OSGeo-Discuss] pygeoapi Graduates OSGeo Incubation

[Victoria Rautenbach via Discuss]

Published at
https://www.osgeo.org/foundation-news/pygeoapi-graduates-osgeo-incubation/
*News item by Tom Kralidis*


Date: 2022-08-21

OSGeo is pleased to announce that the pygeoapi project has graduated from
incubation and is now a full-fledged OSGeo project. Tom Kralidis, pygeoapi
founder and chair of the pygeoapi Project Steering Committee (PSC), has
been appointed as project officer.

pygeoapi is a Python server implementation of the OGC API suite of
standards. The project provides a low barrier, off the shelf capability for
data providers to deliver their geospatial data, metadata and services
using OGC APIs, as well as for Python developers to extend, customize and
integrate with custom plugins and templates. pygeoapi supports
microservices architectures, and can be deployed using a number of
different deployment patterns (cloud, on premises, etc.).

Graduating incubation includes fulfilling requirements for open community
operation, a responsible project governance model, code provenance, and
general good project operation. Graduation is the OSGeo seal of approval
for a project and gives potential users and the community at large an added
confidence in the viability and safety of the project.

The pygeoapi Project Steering Committee says, “*The pygeoapi team is
excited to be recognized as an official OSGeo project. The OSGeo stamp of
approval / status has been a goal of the project since its inception in
2018. We are also happy that the project aligns with the directions of the
recently updated OGC / OSGeo Memorandum of Understanding in moving forward
Open Source and Open Standards. We are honoured to be a part of OSGeo and
such a solid group of projects*“.

OSGeo and the pygeoapi project would like to thank Michael Smith and Jody
Garnett for their assistance during this Incubation process.

Congratulations to the pygeoapi community!



*About pygeoapi*

pygeoapi is a Python server implementation of the OGC API suite of
standards. The project emerged as part of the next generation OGC API
efforts in 2018 and provides the capability for organizations to deploy a
RESTful OGC API endpoint using OpenAPI, GeoJSON, and HTML. pygeoapi is open
source and released under an MIT license.

*About OSGeo*

The Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) is a not-for-profit
organization whose mission is to foster global adoption of open geospatial
technology by being an inclusive software foundation devoted to an open
philosophy and participatory community driven development.

The Foundation provides financial, organizational and legal support to the
broader open source geospatial community. It also serves as an independent
legal entity to which community members can contribute code, funding and
other resources, secure in the knowledge that their contributions will be
maintained for public benefit. OSGeo also serves as an outreach and
advocacy organization for the open source geospatial community, and
provides a common forum and shared infrastructure for improving
cross-project collaboration.
