ParameterizedPointPainter: a small performance improvement was done to reduce the loading time
of a large set of points using the same styling.

MeshStyle: When a displacement expression was set with a parameter that was not a
vector, an error would be thrown.

RIA-3524
Parts of the terrain were missing when pitching the camera if the map in krovak projection was displayed in 3D without any
elevation.
Bug fixLuciadRIA
RIA-3764
FeaturePainter: the type of the density property was wrong. To
configure the density you need to set an object literal with a ColorMap, this is now
reflected in the TypeScript typing correctly.
Bug fixLuciadRIA
RIA-3808
Implemented a workaround for an issue with WebGLMap on Chrome 95 on Windows.
The WebGLMap would crash frequently, with 'WebGL context lost' errors being logged on the console.
See https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1272238
for details.

RIA-3804
Fixed issue where the default hovering behavior would not mark the features that would be selected when clicking on
the same position if the features were in the same layer and overlap.

New featureLuciadRIA
It is now possible to connect to HERE Maps and use its data in your LuciadRIA application.
A new class 
@luciad/ria/model/tileset/HereMapsTileSetModel allows to create
a model for the desired HERE data, which can then be added to a LuciadRIA map using a
RasterTileSetLayer.
New featureLuciadRIA
Introduced an environment map effect on
GraphicsEffects. This allows you to visualize an
environment map to improve the realism of your scenes.
New featureLuciadRIA
Introduced the PBRSettings property on Icon3DStyle and
MeshStyle. This allows the use of the
PBR material information in glTF files
to visualize objects in a more realistic, physically based way.
New featureLuciadRIA
The LuciadRIA Symbology Encoding implementation now also supports world-sized
TextSymbolizers
as specified in the OpenGIS Symbology Encoding specification version 1.1.0 (OGC 05-077r4). These
TextSymbolizers have a uom in meters or feet.
The use of a world-sized TextSymbolizer is illustrated in the Symbology Encoding sample for
large cities and roads.
New featureLuciadRIA
RIA-3719
LuciadRIA can now load glTF files that reference WebP compressed textures. This applies to glTF files used
via
Icon3DStyle and OGC 3D Tiles.
New featureLuciadRIA
RIA-3698
LuciadRIA can now load glTF files that are compressed using Draco. This applies to glTF files used
via
Icon3DStyle and OGC 3D Tiles.

RIA-3805
LuciadRIA's HSPC (Hexagon Smart Point Cloud) support was updated to version 22,
produced by
mHSPCConverter version 2021.10.
See HSPCTilesModel for details.

The LuciadRIA samples have been updated to use React for the UI
components. An explanation of the new structure of the sample code can be found in the
Editing, building and running the sample
code how-to article. Note that LuciadRIA does not require the use of React; it can be combined with
any UI library that you prefer to use in your application.
ImprovementLuciadRIA
The glTF format support in
Icon3DStyle has been extended:
- it can now handle glTF files with multiple textures; previously, only the first encountered texture was used for visualization,
- the texture wrapping is now also parsed and used for visualization.
ImprovementLuciadRIA
Added
createTranslationTransformation and
createRotationTransformation
to Affine3DTransformation to have additional building blocks to position and orient a
non-referenced dataset.
ImprovementLuciadRIA
Added
createTopocentricReference to ReferenceProvider for creating
topocentric references, which are local, georeferenced, cartesian coordinate references. Topocentric references are
supported by the TransformationFactory as well, allowing conversions between topocentric
and any other spatial references.
ImprovementLuciadRIA
WebGLMap
now emits events named "PostRender". The callback on this event hook gets called
every frame, after the LuciadRIA layers have been rendered, and gets the WebGL rendering context as a parameter.
This allows you to add externally rendered graphics to a LuciadRIA map.
ImprovementLuciadRIA
It is now possible to create an oriented box with
ShapeFactory.createOrientedBox.
ImprovementLuciadRIA
addSelection
from
@luciad/ria/view/feature/FeaturePainterUtil
now supports selection styling of ComplexStrokedLineStyle and text with a halo set.
ImprovementLuciadRIA
RIA-3734
To ease connecting to OpenStreetMap tile services, a new
how-to article
has been added as
well as an extension to the Data Formats sample to show this in practice.
ImprovementLuciadRIA
Symbology Encoding: Added an
IconProvider to the
SEPainterFactory
factory methods. This IconProvider allows mapping
ExternalGraphics
elements onto icon images or URL's.
ImprovementLuciadRIA
Symbology Encoding: Added support for the vendor option named "conflictResolution". Setting this option to 'false'
in a
TextSymbolizer will disable decluttering for those labels.
The default value for this vendor option can be adjusted in the SEPainterCreateOptions.
ImprovementLuciadRIA
Symbology Encoding: For
TextSymbolizers which explicitly declare a
PointPlacement, LuciadRIA will now apply this placement strictly, meaning that it will no
longer move the label around when it would otherwise fall outside of the view. Additionally, the
rotation
tag in this PointPlacement is now supported as well.
Bug fixLuciadRIA
RIA-3597
Fixed an issue in Symbology Encoding regarding the Graphic element. If a size is specified, the height of the graphic
will be scaled to that size and the corresponding aspect ratio will be used to determine the width.
Bug fixLuciadRIA
Fixed an issue where non-WebGLMaps would not resize correctly when used in a CSS flex layout.
Bug fixLuciadRIA
RIA-3778
Fixed issue where the
FlickerController ended up in a broken state when a click event
happened before first configuring which layers to flicker between.
Bug fixLuciadRIA
RIA-3774
Fixed an issue where
GestureEventType.TWO_FINGER_DRAG touch events are only recognized if
the touch movement starts with a vertical movement.
Bug fixLuciadRIA
Fixed parsing of WFS feature type keywords from a WFS 2.0.0 capabilities document.
Upgrade considerationLuciadRIA
TileSet3DLayer: the default loading strategy is now
TileLoadingStrategy.OVERVIEW_FIRST. This change was done as this strategy typically yields
a better user experience. You can restore the old default by setting
TileSet3DLayer.loadingStrategy
to TileLoadingStrategy.DETAIL_FIRST.
