Kestrel v0.1.5

Kestrel v0.1.5

New

• Mini-map preview. The results now include a tiny world map marking where the data sits — a
  one-second "is this in the right place?" check. Fully offline (a small bundled world outline,
  drawn with Qt; no internet, no extra dependencies).
• Right-click "Inspect with Kestrel". Inspect a shapefile / GeoPackage / GeoTIFF / GeoJSON /
  KML / etc. straight from File Explorer. The installer sets it up automatically; on Windows 11
  it's under "Show more options". (Portable / zip users: run Kestrel.exe --register once;
  --unregister removes it.)

Also: Kestrel can now open a file passed on the command line, so file associations and
drag-onto-exe work too.

Download (Windows 64-bit, no Python required)

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

Unsigned, so Windows SmartScreen may warn on first launch; choose More info then Run anyway.
