馃帀 New Major Release
After almost two years we have decided to promote our release candidate to a new major release! Thank you to all our contributors who have gotten us to this milestone. It's late on a Friday, so I'm sure I'm missing someone, but here's a short list of folks who contributed to this new major release:
- @jcphill
- @Falke-Design
- @Tommatheussen
- @jellyspoon
- @m-mohr
- @rowanwins
- @drwelby
- @tomerigal (contributions to geowarp)
Big thanks to @twelch for all his support of the JavaScript geospatial ecosystem including georaster.
And last but not least, many many thanks to @constantinius for starting and maintaining geotiff.js and making all of this possible.
what does this new major release include?
It's hard to list out the hundreds of changes, but here's a short summary:
- much better projection support
- better performance for most use cases (but not all)
- fixed issue where tiles are sometimes warped and not aligned when visualizing UTM geotiff
- replaced core reprojection logic with geowarp
- added support for Leaflet 1.9.4
- lots and lots of edge case fixes especially around polar regions and meridians
