4.4.0

  • New engine for importing 8 bit raster GeoPackages (massivegeopackage). Large input datasets consisting of multiple files will be imported using multiple logical processors, increasing performance by several factors.
  • New category of GeoPackage dataset: Coverage GeoPackage. Imported from 16, 32 or 64 bit gridded data, can represent any geographical phenomenon, such as land cover, temperature, heatmap, etc. These datasets can be visualized with Color map layers in overlays and templates.
  • New function in vector styling: attribute fanout can create a set of layers based on unique values of an attribute. It can also create layers based on set intervals in numerical attributes.
  • New function in vector styling: logical operator OR can now be used in combination with AND to create more advanced filters.
  • Right-click anywhere in the map to get geographical info about the clicked position, as well as information about visible datasets covering it.
  • Separate command line tool to create and update products and datasets (MariaMapMakerCLI). Can be used in scripts on datasets which require frequent updates.
  • New function to duplicate vector datasets within a product. The MBTiles data file is not duplicated, only referenced, so multiple datasets can be styled indepedently without the added storage requirements.
