Change Log
-------------
Version:
3.0.0 gamma [2024-09-30]
* Upgraded Commons Imaging library to 1.0.0-alpha4
3.0.0 beta [2024-09-18]
* Upgraded main number version. New the new menu organization and
new features
* Added a 'Recently used' menu which shows the last 10 used plugins
with the possibility to empty the list.
* Enhanced 'Help' option as a tree of documents
* New Plugins:
- Added 'Warping raster' toolbox to georefence raster using affine,
perspective and bicubic transformation. 'Raster layer' submenu
* Optimized PlugIns:
- Export data: added 'KMZ' and 'JPG' files options
- Raster Calculator: added Normalize and Standardize tools
- Flow Accumulation: optimized Multiflow algorithm
* General - Save raster file: removed timestamp from saved files and substituted
with a sequence of 4 random chars. This allows to reuse saved file with
the embedded 'Calculator'. Previously the users were obliged to remove
the sequence of numbers/timestamp as the 'Calculator' library (Jep) decoded
them as numbers and thrown an error message
2.1.2 [2024-08-19]
* Rearranged menus in a more intuitive order:
- Moved Import and Export file plugins to 'File' menu
- Moved 'Reproject Raster' plugin to 'Raster properties' menu
- Moved 'Reclassify raster' plugin to 'Image processing' menu
* Optimized write and read GeoTIFF files:
- Read and write both point to embedded GeoTIFF encode and decode classes
- Optimized saving GeoTIFF tags (SRS, Geolocation, Statistics and Nodata)
- Save on aux.xml file SRS, Geolocation, Statistics and Nodata just in case
relative embedded tags are cancelled or corrupted in the TIFF file
* Added some checks to control different properties of one or more rasters:
- Check if the raster is categorical: each pixel has a value that represents
a class or category.
- Check if the raster is binary: each raster pixel has only one of the two
values '1' or '0'
- Check if the raster has fractional values
- Check if the raster has negative values
- Check if two or more rasters are spatially consistent
* Added an option on 'Raster Option' panel to set a maximum number of classes below
which the raster is identified by a plugin as Categorical
* New Math plugIns
- 'Raster Scaling' with Normalize, Standardize, Max abs, Robust and Power
methods (Math parsing menu)
- 'Statistic Tests' with Simple T, Kappa, Student T, K-S and Crispness tests, Pearson's,
Spearman's and Kendall's coefficients (Math parsing menu/Statistics submenu)
* Added kernel size option to Aspect and Slope plugins
* Added Northwardness and Eastwardness to Aspect plugin as advanced options
* Revisited Local Morphometric variables plugin according to Florinsky (2011) schema
* Added Convergence, Openess, Protection and Elevation relief indices to
'Topographic Indices' plugin in Terrain analysis menu
* Speed up Distance to Channel Network plugin
2.1.1 [2024-07-16]
* added Z-factor for scaling linear elevation units to match geographic coordinate values
* Homologate Hillshade output to QGIS/ArcGIS standards
* Moved Raster Option and Raster Info plugin to 'Help' submenu
2.1.0 [2024-07-01]
* New PlugIns:
- 'Cost Analysis' and 'Cost Pathway' (Cost and distance menu)
- 'Weighted overlay' and 'Weighted sum' (Overlay menu)
- 'Round values' (Math menu)
- 'Real area' (Terrain analysis menu)
- 'Import style' and 'Export style' (Raster properties menu)
* Added the capability to use Circular, Manhattan and Chamfer 3x3 windows
together with standard Square (Euclidean) 3x3 window
* Added FD8 algorithm (Fairfiels & Laimarine, 1991) and FRho8 (Wilson and Gallant, 1991)
for hydologic and cost algorithms (together with D8 and Rho8 ones)
* Both previous windows types and algorithms combo boxes are now centralized.
* Single algorithms export to byte, integer of float data buffer according
to the predicted range of output values
* the names of saved files now have a time stamp instead of a random number suffix
* Import raster layers can read geospatial information from aux.xml file
* Cleaned and reorganized code to make size of the plugIns smaller
* Corrected bugs on Export raster and Accumulation flow plugIns
* Rewrite 'Distance to Channel Network' in order to integrates the results
using the same algorithms
2.0.9 [2024-05-16]
* New PlugIns:
- 'Measure between items' plugIn which a) works with all type of geometries,
b) add option to use Eclidean, Manhattan, Chebyshev algorithms),
c) option to output Direction, Allocation and Distance raster layers.
- Removed all the other Distance tools from the menu
- Added vertical and horizontal distances to 'Distance to Channel Network' plugin.
2.0.8 [2024-05-03]
* Removed "Affine transformation of Raster" plugIn as it is still buggy requiring refining
* Clean code from some unused methods
* New PlugIns:
- added Math Operator plugIn. Grouped with Raster Calculator into 'Math analysis' menu
- added Euclidean and Manhattan Distance plugIn into 'Measure tools' menu
- added 4 plugIns to move to N, S, W, E into view pop-up menu
* Recompiled the Copyright adding Disclaimer and Documentation notes
2.0.7 [2024-04-13]
* Upgraded Commons Imaging library to 1.0.0-alpha4
2.0.6 [2023-04-28]

* New PlugIns:
- added a plugin to georeference (affine transformation) a raster
- added Export raster layers to files plugin
- Raster tool information: added an help panel with the descriptions of all the plugins
- Import Raster: checking spatial coordinates also into aux.xml <GeoTransform> tag

reference systems
* Delaunay triangulation plugin:
- added Nearest Neighbor, Inverse Distance Weighted, Min Z, Max Z and Mean Z methods
* Grouped 'Info' and 'Style' plugins as one plugin.
* Removed embedded JEP library (which it available into OL Plus).
Now Raster tools works with both OpenJUMP Core and Plus, but 'Raster Calculator' plugin
is deactivated if JEP libraries are not available (OpenJUMP Core)
2.0.4 [2022-12-10]
* New PlugIns:
- 'Crop raster to valid data' and 'Resample to extension' plugins (Image processing menu)
- added 'Drape raster' plugin (Overlay menu)
* Bugs correction:
- correct to valid size shift of 'Resample plugin'
