GeoTools 2.6.2 released

The GeoTools project is pleased to announce the release of GeoTools version 2.6.2.

This release is mostly intended to provide a number of important bug-fixes, but there are also some new features and improvements for your programming pleasure including:
  • The rendering system now has the ability to draw polygon fills and SVGs as vectors and draw marks with arbitrary sizes.
  • GeoTools applications can now use the H2 database with a spatial index provided by Hatbox.
  • Support added for polyconic projections.
Refer to the 2.6.2 release notes for full details.

You can download the complete GeoTools 2.6.2 source distribution from Sourceforge, or click the 'View all files' button on that page for separate downloads for pre-compiled binaries and javadocs. You can also download the source code with your favourite Subversion client from: http://svn.osgeo.org/geotools/tags/2.6.2
