The 6.7 release includes a great batch of usability improvements, fixes, and new features. See the full list of changes from 100 pull requests below, but here are some highlights:

  • New GeoTIFF source! With parsing support from the awesome geotiff.js library, you can now render layers from hosted GeoTIFF imagery. The GeoTIFF source gives you the ability to pull from multiple GeoTIFF images, read from arbitrary bands, run band math expressions, and style the imagery to your liking.
  • New WebGL tile renderer. The GeoTIFF source is rendered with a new WebGL-based tile renderer. In addition to GeoTIFFs, the renderer supports layers with a generic DataTile source – these can be used to render aribtrary raster data and leverage the same style expressions as described above.
  • More type checking. We continue to make improvements to the TypeScript definitions included in the ol package.
  • New sources supporting the draft OGC API - Tiles specification. The OGCMapTile and OGCVectorTile sources allow you to render data from services that implement the draft OGC tiles spec. Since the specification is not yet final, these sources are not yet part of the stable OpenLayers API and should be considered experimental.
  • Custom cluster creation support, improved KML icon rendering, lots of fixes, and more. See below for all the detail.
