Kestrel v0.1.2

A polish release — the app and its docs now read in plainer, friendlier language. The
diagnostics explain each problem (and its fix) in plain English, and the in-app wording is
warmer throughout. Also includes the v0.1.1 fix for opening files on network drives (UNC paths).

Kestrel is a desktop CRS/UTM sanity-checker for QGIS workflows: drop in a shapefile (zipped or
plain), GeoPackage, GeoJSON, or GeoTIFF and instantly see its CRS / UTM zone, real-world
location, and why a layer might not draw in QGIS.

Download (Windows 64-bit, no Python required)

  • KestrelSetup.exe - installer (recommended). Per-user, no admin needed; adds a Start-Menu
    shortcut and an uninstaller.
  • Kestrel-windows.zip - portable. Unzip anywhere and run Kestrel\Kestrel.exe.

Starts in about a second (one-folder build). Unsigned, so Windows SmartScreen may warn on first
launch; choose More info then Run anyway.
