GeoTools 10.6 Released

The GeoTools community is pleased to bring you GeoTools 10.6:

     geotools-10.6-bin.zip
     geotools-10.6-doc.zip
     geotools-10.6-userguide.zip
     geotools-10.6-project.zip

Artifacts are also available from our Maven repository.

This is our first GeoTools maintenance release offering an extra six 
months of the GeoTools 10 series. This six month windows provides a 
grace period allowing you schedule your upgrade to GeoTools 11 while 
still receiving bug fixes. For more information see Changing Tracks on 
the the GeoTools Release Train.


The GeoTools 10.6 Release Notes detail changes since 10.5. These include:

     app-schema improvements handling nulls and undefined namespaces

     SpatialLite supports now supports views in addition to tables

     Oracle support continues to approve with better CRS axis name and 
spatial index support

     Small fixes for GeoJSON, GeoTIFF, process annotations


About the GeoTools 10.x Series
Summary of the features for the GeoTools 10.x series:

     Structured grid coverage readers allow raster data sources that 
publish composite data products to expose individual rasters (ie 
granules) for processing, while still providing a seamless experience 
for rendering. The mosaic and NetCDF modules are the first ones to 
implement these new interfaces.
     Efficient support for multiple coverages in GridCoverageReader 
provides ad-hoc access to raster formats that publish more that one data 
product. A image mosaic made of NetCDF granules and single file NetCDF 
sources are the first implementors of these new capabilities
     A new implementation of Shapefile DataStore (based on 
ContentDataStore superclass). This upgrade should be seamless for all 
users using DataStoreFactoryFinder. If you explicitly made use of the 
ShapefileDataStore or IndexedShapefileDataStore class please check the 
upgrade instructions.
     The transform module graduated to supported status, providing a 
seamless way to rename, retype and hide SimpleFeatureSource attributes, 
as well as creating new ones based on OGC Expression
     Additional OGC modules for the WCS 2.0 and WCS 2.0 EO models as 
well as adding XML parsers and encoders
     Support for fills made with randomized symbols

The 10.x series features a number of research and development activities:

     NetCDF has been updated to take advantage of the new coverage API 
introduced above
     GeoPackage: a sample implementation of the geopackage spec that is 
currently being developed by the OGC

If you are interested in helping out please introduce yourself on 
geotools-devel mailing list.

Enjoy,
The GeoTools Community
