This release is also available from our maven repository.

This release is made in conjunction with GeoServer 2.11.3.

  • 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
And more! For more information please see the release notes (17.3 | 17.2 | 17.1 | 17.0 | 17-RC1 | 17-beta).

About GeoTools 17

Thanks to everyone who took part in the code-freeze, monthly bug stomp, or directly making the release. This release is made in conjunction with GeoServer 2.12-RC1.

As a release-candidate, 18-RC1 is not intended for production systems, however the API is stable and we invite everyone to try upgrading their applications, report any issues, and help out with the final round of testing and fixing:

Highlights from our issue tracker release-notes:
  • GeoPackage store does not support spatial indexes
  • StreamingRenderer can result in map with white lines at tile borders against a heterogeneous CRS mosaic
  • NetCDFImageReader may throw classCastException if underlying dimensions and axes aren't sorted at the same way
  • ImageMosaic cached index does not support filtering and sorting at the same time
  • Increase ProjectionHandler robustness when the target geometry just touches the valid area

GeoTools DB2 Tutorial

A tutorial for DB2 working with GeoTools is now available. This extends the excellent GeoTools QuickStart tutorial to illustrate how to exploit the spatial capabilities provided by the IBM DB2 databases on Windows, *IX, mainframe (z/OS) and cloud (BlueMix dashDB) platforms.

There are also related tutorials for using DB2 with the GeoServer and uDig projects based on GeoTools as well as the GDAL/OGR and QGIS GIS projects.
