openModeller 0.4 released

openModeller is a cross-platform C++ library for static spatial distribution modelling, normally used to predict species distribution (fundamental niche).

This release contains major feature enhancements and also some bugfixes. The main changes are:

- Integration with TerraLib. In addition to GDAL, openModeller's IO functions now work with Terralib raster and point data.
- Refactoring of the SOAP interface which now covers all modelling functionality, allowing remote interaction with a modelling service.
- The new version of GARP (v3) has been re-enabled.
- The default output map file type was changed to ERDAS Imagine ".img" to achieve wider compatibility with GIS software. This format provides a floating-point representation in each raster cell (reflecting probability of presence).
- Several fixes in the SWIG-Python binding.
- An installation issue with the RPM packages was fixed.
