GeoTools 17.3 marks the switch of the 17.x series to maintenance mode (as 18.x takes the role of stable release) is a recommended upgrade for projects already using the 17.x series. This release comes with 15 assorted fixes and a couple of minor improvements:
- Several improvements in image mosaic and raster rendering (in particular related to mosaics with mixed CRS, filtering and sorting, and direct modification of the mosaic index)
- Avoid rendering empty outputs on raster data when the oversampling factor reaches very high values
- Better mapping of dates in Oracle datastore, in particular, DATE is now mapped to java.sql.TimeStamp
- Better toString for temporal filters (handy if you're debugging some code involving them)
- Fixed an issue preventing to parse GeoJSON having a "crs" key among its properties
