LuciadFusion can not support legacy AIXM 5.0 anymore. AIXM 5.0 was introduced in 2007 by FAA and Eurocontrol as an

which of course remains supported, together with AIXM 3.3 and 4.x.
The following add-ons have been removed :TLcyAIXM5AddOn,

The OpenGL 3D view in the DCM has been replaced by a Lightspeed 3D view. The Lightspeed 3D view has better performance then the old 3D view. Also, the Lightspeed 3D view supports the visualization of vector coverages which wasn't the case for the old 3D view.
As a consequence, all the OpenGL addons have been removed and are replaced by their Lightspeed counterpart. If you try loading an workspace from a previous version containing a 3D view, the workspace will be restored without the 3D view.

LuciadFusion now supports replication of tile stores.
Given a target tile store, replication lets you define a source tile store to replicate data from.
To initiate replication, choose 'Replicate Tile Store' from a tile store's context menu to initiate replication.
- Select a source to replicate data from. The DCM will go in 'Replication mode', and resources eligible for replication be marked in the tile store tree.
- You can reject replication for individual resources by choosing 'Revert' from the resource's context menu. This will unmark them for replication.
- You can define an area of interest to limit the coverage size on the replica (only for tiled raster coverages). An area of interest is defined on a tile store, but you can tie them to a specific coverage by selecting the coverage and then select the area of interest from the drop-down box in the metadata editor.
- Click 'Commit' and 'Start jobs' to start replication.
- You can exit replication mode at any time by clicking 'Revert' at the bottom of the Tile Store Manager.
- It is symmetrical, meaning that there is nothing which inherently defines a tile store to be source or target. Any tile store can be used as source or target at any given moment.
- It replicates all resources: coverages, assets and themes. Replication operates on both a resource's metadata and data, but the data is only replicated as part of a coverage. This means that, for asset sources in tile store, the asset sources are replicated only if the asset is part of a coverage.
- Resources are globally identified across tile stores based on the resource ID, which must be globally unique. Updates are detected based on the global update sequence of a resource, which has the semantics of a 'last modified' timestamp.

The respective visibility of the assets in the target coverage can be changed by dragging and dropping them under a
coverage node. Dropping an asset on its coverage node restored its natural order (based on compilation scale).
ImprovementData Connectivity Manager
When rasterizing vector data, the minimum scale of a raster asset can be edited. This allows the user to limit the
visibility of an asset in the fused result: high-detailed assets can be omitted altogether at insufficiently
detailed fusion levels.

When editing asset metadata, the pixel density has been replaced with a compilation scale, thus making it more
intuitive to use. It controls the level of detail with which the data will be fused.

When rasterizing vector data, the compilation scale of the assets can be configured in the DCM, allowing control

LuciadFusion is extended with support for rasterizing vector data into raster coverages.
The rasterization relies on a layer factory that should be available for the vector format.
The Data Connectivity Manager provides built-in support for rasterizing any vector data format for which a layer factory is registered.
ImprovementData Connectivity Manager
LuciadFusion now adds support to fuse and and distribute raster data representing values other than image and
elevation.
For instance, meteorological raster data defining temperature or wind speed. To support this use case,
a new 'multivalued' coverage type is introduced. Additionally, support for the GRIB weather data format
(V1, V2, bulletins) is added, as a primary use case for the new coverage type.
The Data Connectivity Manager is extended with support for the new coverage type and the GRIB data format.
ImprovementData Connectivity Manager
LuciadFusion is extended with support for vector data, enabling users to use very large vector data sets in
applications.
By applying tiling and the use of multiple levels of details, LuciadFusion allows to fuse vector
data sources into a vector coverage, ready for high performance data streaming, visualization and analysis.
To support the vector data use case, the Data Connectivity Manager offers the necessary GUI components to fuse and process vector data, and to manage a LuciadFusion Tile Store. Users can import vector data sources and fuse them into vector coverages. Through the user interface, fine-grained control is offered over the simplification approach applied by the Fusion Engine.

The Data Connectivity Manager add-on infrastructure has been refactored to offer an API to the user,
giving the possibility to create extensions and make customizations.
