Changelog for G3W-SUITE 3.4

G3W-SUITE 3.4 offers an extensive list of new and improved features – the most important shown here:

      • embedded project management
      • drill-down cascading and conditional forms on edit
      • add custom external WMS services plugin
      • vector and raster time series visualization
      • multiband raster plots

We hope you enjoy this great work!

Happy mapping!

Sponsor and funder

G3W-SUITE is an open source project and if you are able to, consider supporting our work through donations or contributions to the code documentation, web site and so on. Among the main funder of this version we remember:

General

Feature: QGIS 3.22 LTR support

G3W-SUITE 3.4 is compatible with the new LTR of QGIS

Feature: Embedded projects

Setting inherited from the QGIS project

G3W-SUITE now manages the publication of projects with embedded groups/layers from other projects.

Updating the “parent” project will result in updating all projects with embedded layers.

Feature: Searches: new management of dependencies between fields

Now it is possible to define the dependence more or less strong (strictly).

In case of strictly dependence, the values of the dependent fields will be loaded only after the choice of the value of the field on which the dependency depends.

Otherwise it will be possible to define the values of the individual fields freely and without a specific order. The values available for the other fields will in any case depend on the choice made.

Feature: User-based fields filter

It is possible to define filters for the single layers of a project (based on single/group users) which define the visibility of the attributes (fileds) of the layer itself.

Also available for public user (AnonymusUser)

Feature: Parameterized URLs for direct zoom to extensions / layers / features

It is possible to create parameterized URLs for direct zomming to:

    • geographical extension
    • single feature by FID
    • single/list features by value of a field

Cartographic Client

Feature: Add external WMS to the WebGis

The user can add custom WMS layers to the WebGis service.

The list of WMS services and the specific WMS layers added will remain available to the user until the browser cache is cleared.

Feature: Data download

Now it is possible to allow the download of raster data in GeoTiff format.

Entire layer or clipped to the extent of the canvas.

Print

Feature: Custom titles in print

Setting inherited from the QGIS project

Using the ItemIDs at the print layout level of the QGIS project it is possible to insert one or more labels with customized content in the print from WebGis

Editing

Feature: Drill-down (cascading) forms

Setting inherited from the QGIS project

Drill-down (cascading) forms based on QGIS expressions are now supported and implemented for online editing.

The functionality can be used to implement “drill-down” within editing forms, where the values available in one field depend on the values of other fields.

This function will be reflected in the consultation side.

Feature: Conditionals forms

Setting inherited from the QGIS project

Conditional forms based on QGIS expressions are now supported and implemented for online editing/consulting.

Feature: User association

Automatic compilation of fields of the attribute table with user creator/modifier of the features.

Feature: Start editing directly from query/search results

It is possible to go directly from consulting the attributes of a feature to editing it.

Feature: 1:N relations without nesting limits

Setting inherited from the QGIS project

1:N relations are managed in cascade without nesting limits (consultation and editing)

Improved and modified the management of 1:N related data editing (no longer via TAB)

Feature: N:M relations

Setting inherited from the QGIS project

The management of N:M relations defined on QGIS project is now supported.

Limitation in editing: non-direct changes on M table

Feature: Measurement tools on editing

It is now possible to misure interactively the segments length and the polygons area on the map during the editing phase.

Analysis tools

Feature: Temporal controller and Raster Time series

Setting inherited from the QGIS project

Animating Time Series Data on WebGis!

The QGIS temporal controller functions are now managed on the WebGis side.

Compatibility is currently valid for NetCDF formats.

Feature: Temporal controller and Vector Time series

Setting inherited from the QGIS project

Animating Time Series Data on WebGis!

The QGIS temporal controller functions are now managed on the WebGis side.

Compatibility is currently valid for vector data (Single Filed with Date / Time option only).

Feature: Multiband raster plots

Analyze your multiband data through time charts!

Feature: Geographic analysis

Implemented a generic method for using the Processing API for geographic data analysis directly on WebGis.

The use of the individual Porcessing modules requires the implementation of dedicated client/server modules for use on the cartographic client side.

Minor improvements

Feature: Set WebGis services order on the FrontEnd

Using drag&drop in the ADMIN session it’s now possible to define the order of the WebGis services at the FrontEnd level.
