Kestrel v0.1.3
Kestrel v0.1.3
Reads more formats
- CSV & Excel with coordinate columns — finds lon/lat or x/y / easting/northing, computes
the extent, and infers the CRS. Lon/lat data gets located on the map; projected values are
flagged as needing a CRS. - KMZ (zipped KML).
Catches more problems
- UTM hemisphere / zone mismatch (e.g. a northern-zone CRS on southern-hemisphere data, or
coordinates that fall in a different zone than the CRS claims). - Antimeridian-wrapping extents.
- Mixed coordinate systems across GeoPackage layers.
- Invalid / self-intersecting geometry.
More robust
- One broken layer in a multi-layer GeoPackage no longer fails the whole file — it's flagged and
the rest still loads.
Also includes the v0.1.1 network-path (UNC) fix and v0.1.2 wording polish.
