  • WMS scale adjustments.
    • Some WMS services report their scale ranges based on a more rigid interpretation of the WMS specification, if you set adjustWmsScales to true in a server side map engine configuration it will take this into account when reporting the scale ranges to the client. This can be an issue because most WMS services seem to assume 96DPI when reporting scales ranges, but the spec says that it should be 90.7DPI, so if your client tool used to set the scale range is running an 96DPI and you set the scale to 10,000, the WMS server may tell Weave that the scale is actually 9447.916 (90.7/96*10000), so Weave need to undo this conversion to get back to the original value. So far Carmenta WMS server is the only one we've found with this issue.
  • Zip'n'ship updates.
    • The zip'n'ship client UI has been updated to be neater.
    • The zip'n'ship client now has the option to enable/disable clipping and simplification of exported geometry.
    • The zip'n'ship configuration now supports exporting layers directly, previously only entities could be exported.
  • Support of list type for parameters in data definition
    • Added support for list types for parameters in data definitions to allow for simple translations to be made without complex joins. e.g. you have a column with Y,N and values and rather than create a table with Yes and No you can create an inline data definition that specifies these Yes No values and they will be replaced.
  • Option to send Trim unique ids
    • Added an option for the ids that are sent to trim to be unique. If you have many ids that are being sent and the ids are the same (due to a filter being set) the query is essentially a lot of "or's" which tends to slow down trim.
  • Added support for tileWidth and tileHeight options for Weave layers.
    • The default tile size for client side map engines are 256x256, but some services produce larger tiles, so now you can specify the tile size.
  • Anonymous user update.
    • The way anonymous users are handles during login has been improved to provide better security.
  • Root node for client storage exposed through API.
    • It's now possible, but definately not recommended, to directly access the root node of user storage. This allows code to perform limited operations on the information stored for all users.
  • 'limit' and 'timeout' values can be set for searches.
    • It's now possible to force a timeout and a limit to the number of items returned when performing a search.
  • Hansen update.
    • The Hansen integration has been updated to expose new functionality provided by Hansen.
  • Redline export.
    • The redline exporting function has been included by default and is now no longer a separate bundle that needs to be installed.
  • Spatial data definitions now support filtering and sorting.
    • Previously data displayed in a grid panel that was generated from a spatial engines was not filterable or sortable, now it is.
  • Added support for SQLite as a user storage option.
    • Now you can store users setting using SQLite as the underlying database.
  • The default navigation controls can be configured.
    • There's an option to modify what map controls are enabled on the map by default.
  • Added support for EPSG:3857.
    • The porojection information for EPSG:3857 has been included by default.
  • Improved monitoring of map generation requests.
    • The log file now records more information about how long map requests are taking to generate.
  • Update WMS server to allow for username/password to be specified as settings in the WMS config.
    • You can set 'username' and 'password' as separate properties in a WMS config, rather than having to encode them in the URL.
  • Added KML export plugin to zip'n'ship feature.
    • KML is not now an option when exporting data via zip'n'ship.
  • Added support for SLD parameter in WMS map requests.
    • You can set an 'sld' parameter in the WMS config and it will be included as 'SLD' in the generated url.
  • Touch navigation supported.
    • You can add a new control to the map view to enable touch navigation.
  • Updated underlying logging framework.
    • Improves logging performance.
  • Config file reader enhancement.
    • The config file reader will now log unterminated comments.
  • Client error reporting imrpovement.
    • The client will now log problems related to missing/invalid components, to help with diagnosing client startup problems.
