The GeoTools team is pleased to announce the release of the latest stable version of GeoTools 34.0:
This release is also available from the OSGeo Maven Repository and is made in conjunction with GeoServer 2.28.0 and GeoWebCache 1.28.0.
This is a major update:
- The library now requires Java 17, ending support for Java 11
- Upgrade from Java Advanced Imaging Library 1.1.3 to Eclipse ImageN 0.9.0.
- Library now provides a maven bill-of-materials import for both library modules and third-party-dependences making it considerably easier for downstream projects to synchronize dependences when upgrading GeoTools
- For more information please see upgrade instructions in the user manual
Thanks to Jody Garnett (GeoCat) for making this release, Gabriel Roldan (Camptocamp) for all the build improvements, and Andrea Aime (GeoServer) for working so hard on the Eclipse ImageN migration.
These major library updates were undertaken as part of the GeoServer 3 activities, and we would like to the crowdfunding sponsors their financial support.
