v0.6.0

RustGIS v0.6.0 keeps the app responsive and puts the work on paper. Geoprocessing tools, exports and large reads now run in the background with progress and Cancel, on the desktop many of them on several cores, and a computer's memory sets the limits, so a dataset too big for the machine stops with a message instead of a crash. Layouts export as vector PDF and SVG, maps gain pie and bar diagrams and label callouts, editing gains Cut Polygon, Reshape and Trace, and new tools check and repair geometry. CityJSON city models, ArcGIS protocol buffer pages and cloud-optimised GeoTIFFs read in place broaden what opens.

Highlights

• Work in the background: the Tools pane, the Analysis pane's raster, zonal, viewshed and interpolation tools, the Classification Wizard, Deep Learning, models and scripts run off the frame with progress and Cancel. Add Data, Export Features, Export Raster, Export Map and Export Layout read and write in the background. gp.batch runs one tool over many inputs, and buffers, IDW, kriging, viewshed, slope, zonal statistics, Near, resampling and more spread their work over several cores on the desktop. Memory limits follow the computer's memory, and a raster or project it can't hold is an error, not a crash. See Analysis.
• Publication output: layouts, reports and printed maps export as vector PDF and SVG, with map frames and surrounds kept as vectors. Legends set in up to three columns, publication layouts get arrangements and a favourite, scale bars take a colour and a fill, and a layout's page copies to the clipboard. Export Map writes the view as a GeoTIFF placed on the ground, Export Raster writes a tile layer's tiles as one, and layers export as binary STL beside OBJ. See Layouts.
• Richer cartography: pie and bar diagrams from several numeric fields. Labels gain callouts, Show All Labels, a Move Label tool, and alternate places to try along lines, with their text, size, colour and angle set by expression. Unique Values by expression, with QGIS rule-based renderers and filters imported through it, and Invert Color Ramp. MapLibre styles draw raster-dem sources as hillshade and colour relief, with every sprite they use. See Cartography.
• Editing and geometry tools: Cut Polygon, Reshape and Trace along an edge while drawing. Check Geometry and Repair Geometry find and fix invalid shapes, and Polygon To Line, Split Line At Vertices, Feature Envelope To Polygon, Unsplit Line, Points Along Lines, Tabulate Intersection and Rasterize join the toolbox. Dissolve and Summarize Within take summary fields, and expressions measure areas and lengths in a chosen unit. See Editing.
• More data, read in place: CityJSON city models as footprints with their heights, ArcGIS feature services read as protocol buffers, cloud-optimised GeoTIFFs as raster layers read in place (or a window of one by bounding box), a Shapefile opened by its .shp address, and exports into an existing GeoPackage as an added or replaced table. Web services take basic-auth or API-key logins, sinusoidal, Robinson, orthographic and Mercator systems are read, JAXA Earth's data cubes open on the time slider, and PDOK Locatieserver joins the geocoders. See Data Formats.
• A better workspace: the History pane shows tool runs and the session log, filtered, saved as CSV or JSON Lines, or copied back to the Script pane. Write custom themes as JSON files and scale the interface. Hide and reorder attribute table columns, read UTM and MGRS coordinates in the status bar and search for them, and download and install updates from Check for Updates on Windows. Greek and Lao join the interface languages, and Requesty and TrustedRouter join the AI Assistant's providers.
