Release Highlights

Highlights for this release include:

New applications ​MapCache, ​GeoExt, ​t-rex, ​actinia.

Additional Python modules like Fiona, rasterio, cartopy, pandas, geopandas, mappyfile.

Improved documentation and four new translations, now supporting: English | Deutsch | Español | Suomi | Français | Italiano | 日本語 | Hungarian

Version ​updates to many of the included packages.

Brian Hamlin from OSGeoLive team noted: “Version 13.0 has improved the Python experience a lot. With the introduction of Jupyter, OSGeoLive can be used in Python training, which supports the rising usage and relevance of Python in geospatial architectures.”

Nicolas Roelandt and Vicky Vergara’s introduction of Transifex has significantly improved the translation process. During the FOSS4G community sprint a new Romanian translation was added. Zoltán Siki, one of the Hungarian translators, pointed out the need for the translation and will use it at GIS courses at University in Budapest.

Maria Aria de Reyna, president of OSGeo, says “So much effort goes into each OSGeoLive release, from documentation to packaging to testing, that we must take a moment to thank those involved. The whole OSGeoLive team deserves a huge thanks. Thank you OSGeoLive team and congratulations on this release.”
