Hi,On behalf of the GDAL/OGR development team and community, I am pleased to announce the release of GDAL/OGR 3.11.0. GDAL/OGR is a C++ geospatial data access library for raster and vector file formats, databases and web services. It includes bindings for several languages, and a variety of command line tools.
http://gdal.org/ The 3.11.0 release is a new feature release with the following highlights:* [RFC 104](https://gdal.org/en/latest/development/rfc/rfc104_gdal_cli.html): <b>Adding a "gdal" front-end command line interface</b>. - See the [list of commands](https://gdal.org/en/latest/programs/index.html#gdal-application) - Includes new "gdal raster calc" and "gdal raster resclassify" utilities. - "gdal raster tile", C++ port of gdal2tiles, runs faster (3x to 6x in some cases) - Includes "gdal vsi list/copy/delete/move/sync" (ports of Python sample scripts)
- Includes "gdal driver {driver_name}" for driver-specific commands.
- Includes smart Bash autocompletion
- Includes C, C++, Python API
* Add [GDALG](https://gdal.org/en/latest/drivers/vector/gdalg.html)
(GDAL Streamed Algorithm Format) driver: reading of on-the-fly /
streamed vector dataset replaying compatible "gdal" command lines (kind
of VRT).
Other topics* [RFC 100](https://gdal.org/en/latest/development/rfc/rfc100_float16_support.html): Support float16 type * [RFC 102](https://gdal.org/en/latest/development/rfc/rfc102_embedded_resources.html): Embedding resource files into libgdal * [RFC 103](https://gdal.org/en/latest/development/rfc/rfc103_schema_open_option.html): Add a OGR_SCHEMA open option to selected OGR drivers * [RFC 105](https://gdal.org/en/latest/development/rfc/rfc105_safe_path_manipulation_functions.html): Add and use safe path manipulation functions * [RFC 106](https://gdal.org/en/latest/development/rfc/rfc106_update_metadata.html): Metadata items to reflect driver update capabilities * [RFC 107](https://gdal.org/en/latest/development/rfc/rfc107_igetextent_isetspatialfilter.html): Add OGRLayer::IGetExtent() and OGRLayer::ISetSpatialFilter() * Add read-only [OGR ADBC](https://gdal.org/en/latest/drivers/vector/adbc.html) (Arrow Database Connectivity) driver, in particular
with support for DuckDB or Parquet datasets (if libduckdb also installed)* Add [LIBERTIFF](https://gdal.org/en/latest/drivers/raster/libertiff.html) driver: native thread-safe read-only GeoTIFF reader * Add read-only [RCM](https://gdal.org/en/latest/drivers/raster/rcm.html) (Radarsat Constellation Mission) raster driver
* Add read-only AIVector (Artificial intelligence powered vector) driver* VRT Pixel Functions: Add function to evaluate arbitrary expression (#11209) * Substantially improved drivers: [ZARR](https://gdal.org/en/latest/drivers/raster/zarr.html), with support for Kerchunk JSON and Parquet reference stores
* GeoPackage: change default version to GeoPackage 1.4 on creation (#7870)* [RFC 108](https://gdal.org/en/latest/development/rfc/rfc108_driver_removal_3_11.html): - Removed raster drivers: BLX, BT, CTable2, ELAS, FIT, GSAG (Golden Software ASCII grid), GSBG (Golden Software 6.0 binary grid), JP2Lura, OZI OZF2/OZFX3, Rasterlite (v1), R object data store (.rda), RDB, SDTS, SGI, XPM, DIPex - Removed vector drivers: Geoconcept Export, OGDI (VPF/VMAP support), SDTS, SVG, Tiger, UK. NTF - Removed write support in following drivers: Interlis 1, Interlis 2, ADRG, PAux, MFF, MFF2/HKV, LAN, NTv2, BYN, USGSDEM, ISIS2
* Removed OpenCL warper* OGR "Memory" driver deprecated, and aliased to the "MEM" driver. Its functionality is merged into the "MEM" driver that has raster, vector
and multidimensional support. * Various code linting, static code analyzer fixes, etc. * Bump of shared lib major version New optional dependencies:* [muparser](https://github.com/beltoforion/muparser) is *strongly* recommended to be added as a build and runtime dependency, to provide nominal support for C++ VRT expressions. * [exprtk](https://github.com/ArashPartow/exprtk) may be added as a build dependency (this is a header-only library) to provide support for advanced C++ VRT expressions. Note that it causes an increase in libgdal size of about 8 MB. exprtk support is recommended to be an addition to muparser support, not as a replacement.
