Hi, Larry wrote that his personal favorites for the improvements are
* Increased use of layer or project SRID throughout OJ so that measurements are in proper values. * Continuation of the UI enhancements you (Ede) and others made in 1.6. My favorites are For OpenJUMP 1.6.2 * WMS 1.3.0 (seems ready) * DB Query Plugin integration (waits a fix for Spatialite multigeometries) For OpenJUMP 1.7.0 * Plugin manager * Improved support for imagery * WMS GetFeatureInfo tool For OpenJUMP 2.0 * OpenJUMP with projections * Support for tiled image services (Google/OpenStreetMax z/x/y services, TMS, WMTS) * Some new vector format for data input/output. Shapefiles start to be outdated because of several reasons: 10 character limit in field names, timestamps are not supported, bunch of files to hold a single layer. Geodata comes more and more in formats like GML, GeoJSON and KML either as files or directly from services. OpenJUMP JML is otherwise rather good but unfortunately no other software in the world understands it. Something like Spatialite but written in Java feels like an ultimate solution but is there quite little activity in developing anything like that at the moment? For example the last update in the Hatbox project seems to be 2011-08-27 http://sourceforge.net/projects/hatbox/ The new format should also be supported by GDAL/OGR. -Jukka Rahkonen- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Precog is a next-generation analytics platform capable of advanced analytics on semi-structured data.
