QGIS 3.22 更新日志

image1

Release date: 2021-10-22

QGIS 3.22 Białowieża is aimed at celebrating the 100-year anniversary of Białowieża National Park, Poland, which was established in 1921. Białowieża Forest is one of the world’s last primary woodlands, located on the border between Poland and Belarus. It is one of the few natural old-growth forests in temperate lowland Europe and has been protected for over 600 years. The outstanding value of Białowieża Forest has been acknowledged by its recognition as a UNESCO Natural World Heritage Site.

Białowieża Forest is named after the village Białowieża, which is located right in the middle of this woodland. It is one of the oldest settlements in the area, nowadays hosting numerous research and tourism activities. Today, there are three research institutions in the village: Białowieża Geobotanical Station, University of Warsaw, The Mammal Research Institute, Polish Academy of Sciences, and the Forest Research Institute, Department of Natural Forests. Additionally, a large number of scientists from Poland and abroad travel to Białowieża in order to carry out their studies, and as such, there are also other users of QGIS in the area, as well as additional projects which contribute to the Open Data and Open Source Software ecosystems, such as the Open Forest Data project.

You can learn more about the project and this release of QGIS at the dedicated project website, https://qgisbialowieza.pl.

This feature-packed release includes a vast number of user experience enhancements and controls added to various advanced functionalities. In addition to a host of additional mesh functionality and operational improvements, QGIS Desktop now includes annotation tools and support for annotation layers, amongst much, much more.

地图工具

功能:添加 "测量方位角" 地图工具

该工具的行为类似于现有的 "测量角度" 地图工具,只需要用户单击地图上的两个点并显示这些点之间的方位角度。

此项功能由 Nyall Dawson 开发

用户界面

功能:在多个选中图层上切换编辑模式

切换编辑模式操作已修改为支持在所有选中图层上激活,从而可以轻松地同时跨多个图层启动和停止编辑会话。尽管所有选中图层的编辑会话状态可能不同,但所有选中图层都将切换为活动或非活动状态,当前活动图层的当前状态将随之进行切换。此功能位于菜单项 图层 > 切换编辑模式、数字化工具栏上的 切换编辑模式 按钮以及图层上下文菜单中的 切换编辑模式 项。

此功能由 Stefanos Natsis 开发

功能:识别图层组和所有选中的图层

虽然识别要素工具支持多种选择模式,但 "当前图层" 模式已扩展为支持选择图层组,并将识别所有选中图层的要素 (仅识别图层组中可见图层的要素)。

此功能由 Stefanos Natsis 开发

功能:为浏览器面板中的所有文件项添加 "在文件资源管理器中显示" 的操作

符号化

功能:几何图形生成器符号图层的自定义单位

几何生成器现在为用户提供了可选项,供用户选择应使用哪些单位返回几何图形,而不是仅支持图层 CRS 中定义的单位。这在符号与图层不关联的情况下特别有用,例如在布局项中使用的时候。

此更新提供以下单位选择:

  • 地图单位 (默认,以前的行为)

  • 毫米

  • 像素

  • 英寸

当选择毫米、像素、英寸或点时,@map_geometry 变量可在表达式内使用,其中包含指定单位中的要素几何图形 (相对于地图框架),而 $geometry 变量仍然可用在图层 CRS 地图单位中的表达式中。

image5

此项功能由 Nyall Dawson 开发

功能:矢量图层的符号参考比例

已公开一个选项,允许为矢量图层上的要素符号配置参考比例。

实际这定义了相关的地图比例,配置的符号和标注大小可以在该比例下使用基于纸张的单位 (例如毫米或点) 进行引用。然后,这些单位大小将根据相关参考比例和当前地图视图的比例自动相应地缩放。

例如,如果将线图层配置为使用参考比例为 1:2000 的 2mm 线宽,将使用 4mm 线宽以 1:1000 的地图比例或 1mm 线宽以 1:4000 的地图比例进行渲染要素。

Feature: Advanced mesh editing enhancements

This feature has been introduced in the scope of QEP 228 which outlines the introduction of Mesh Editing tools, implements changes to the User Interface, and exposes new functionality to the API.

The QGIS User Interface provides delaunay triangulation and face refinement functions, which are accessible from the context menu in the map when vertices and/ or faces are selected from a mesh layer. These options may be migrated to buttons in the mesh toolbar once further functionality has been introduced.

mapToolrefine

The QGIS API has also been extended to support advanced editing for meshes, which is introduced by a new interface abstract class QgsMeshAdvancedEditing. Derived classes of this class can be implemented to make some advanced editing on a mesh: generation of faces to add to the mesh, particular operation on many faces or vertices. The advanced editing is made by passing a QgsMeshAdvancedEditing instance to a QgsmeshEditor instance, and the editing is applied as other editing operations.

Two advanced editing functions are implemented within this feature:

  • 德洛内三角网

  • Faces refinement

此功能由 Lutra Consulting (Vincent Cloarec) 开发

Feature: Select editable mesh elements by polygon

Users can now select mesh elements within a digitized area when performing mesh editing. Each vertex of the polygon is digitized using a left click, whilst right clicking will complete and validate the polygon to select intersecting mesh elements (faces and vertices). Using the backspace key will allow the user to remove last vertex, and the Escape key will allow users to return to the normal digitizing mode.

This function supports two behavior modes with different selection predicates as follows:

  • Touching elements (default), or partially included/ intersecting elements will be selected (green rubber band).

  • Contained, or completely included elements will be selected (blue rubber band).

此功能由 Lutra Consulting (Vincent Cloarec) 开发

Feature: Select mesh elements by existing geometries

Two actions have been added for selecting mesh elements from geometries present in existing vector layers.

After selecting vector layer geometries, the user can use these tools to select mesh elements using the touching or containing predicates.

此功能由 Lutra Consulting (Vincent Cloarec) 开发

Feature: Select mesh elements by expression

An interface has been created for selecting mesh elements by expression during mesh editing. In addition, a contextual expression function $face_area has been added that returns the area of a mesh face.

此功能由 Lutra Consulting (Vincent Cloarec) 开发

Feature: Transform single vertex

A new editing mode for the mesh transform tool allows the user to import the coordinates of a single selected vertex.

The tool button on the top right of the Transform Mesh Vertices window toggles this mode, and each time a single vertex is selected it will automatically populate the available fields for the user to adjust the vertex coordinates accordingly.

此功能由 Lutra Consulting (Vincent Cloarec) 开发

Feature: Reindex/ renumber mesh layer

Users are now able to reindex (or renumber) the vertices and faces of a mesh layer during editing. The renumbering is an optimization of the mesh with the Cuthill-McKee algorithm.

此功能由 Lutra Consulting (Vincent Cloarec) 开发

Feature: Force mesh by polylines

When editing mesh features, users can now transform features by forcing them to conform to a surface defined by existing polylines, or break lines. Faces are forced to follow the break lines, that is, edges of encountered faces have to be on these lines. Users may select break line geometries and then use the dedicated button to transform intersecting mesh elements.

Options provided for the transform include:

  • Adding new vertices when the lines cut the internal edges

  • Interpolating the Z value of newly added vertices on the mesh or from the lines

  • Tolerance setting for shifting existing vertices into place and preventing the creation of new vertices along line within the specified distance

forceByBreakLine

Whilst the term "break lines" is typically used to refer to polylines that constrain a surface or TIN to the defined positions, these break lines are often components of the mesh itself, and additional operations would continue to constrain the surface to these lines. This functionality specifically transforms the surface in a static manner, so that future operations are not constrained to the lines used to transform the mesh elements.

image21

此功能由 Hydrotec 资助

此功能由 Lutra Consulting (Vincent Cloarec) 开发

Feature: Mesh transform by expression

User can perform geometrical transformations on a mesh using an expression to change the vertices' coordinates. All coordinates (X,Y,Z) of selected vertices can be calculated with an expression, allowing transformation of the mesh while the mesh is still valid.

With a valid expression, selecting the "Preview transform" option will calculate the new expression based mesh coordinates and identify whether the transform is valid and may be applied.

If the preview is green, the transformed mesh is valid and the user can apply the transformation. If the preview is red, the transformed mesh is invalid and user cannot apply the transformation.

Once applied, users have the option to undo or redo the operation.

渲染

功能:允许对地图画布使用物理 DPI

新设置可正确使用物理屏幕 DPI 而不是逻辑 DPI,允许在不同的连接设备 (高 dpi 和低 dpi) 以及移动应用程序 (如 QField) 中均匀呈现符号。

默认情况下禁用此设置,确保符号的缩放比例不会与 QGIS 早期版本中的符号存在差异。

此功能由 Matthias Kuhn 开发

功能:由数据定义的栅格图层不透明度

A new control has been exposed which allows the opacity of a raster to be data defined. This allows for the varied representation of a raster layer, in various contexts, such as on different pages of an atlas, being dependent on the visibility of another layer, or adjusted by temporal variables etc.

Additionally, a "redraw layer only" temporal mode for raster layers has been added, which causes a raster layer to be redrawn on each new animation frame as in the equivalent functionality for vector layers. This may be useful in many contexts, such as when the layer uses time-based expression values like the data defined renderer opacity to fade in or out a raster layer from an animation.

此项功能由 Nyall Dawson 开发

表达式

Feature: Mesh expression functions for vertex_as_point and vertex_z

Expressions have been added for interacting with mesh layers, with the following functions returning value related to the current vertex:

  • $vertex_as_point: returns the current vertex as a geometry point

  • $vertex_z: returns the Z value of the current vertex.

These two functions are contextual and need to be added in a QgsExpressionContext with QgsExpressionContextUtils::meshExpressionScope() for the creation of a specific QgsExpressionScope.

This feature was developed by Antoine Facchini

Feature: Add sinuosity expression

A sinuosity function has been added to QGIS expressions.

This feature was developed by Loïc Bartoletti

Feature: New exif() and exif_geotag() functions

A new pair of functions was added to the QGIS expression engine to read exif tags from image files. The two functions are:

  • exif(path, tag) : this function returns the value of a given tag string for the provided image file path; when the second optional parameter isn't provided, the function will return a map object containing all exif tags and their values.

  • exif_geotag(path) : this function returns a point geometry from the exif geotags containing in the provided image file path.

Feature: File-based dataset size and last modified date in the layer properties dialog

The layer properties dialog's information panel now shows the size and last modified date of file-based datasets, removing the need to retrieve these details from a file manager. These additional details are also visible in the browser panel's information section. For datasets formed of more than a single file, the size will reflect the sum of all the auxiliary/ sidecar files forming the dataset.

功能:支持外部存储

QGIS 现在包含一个外部存储 API,这符合 QEP 196 中概述的建议。

包括以下功能:

  • 外部存储 API

  • 包含所有外部存储后端的注册表

  • SimpleCopy 外部存储:将选中的外部资源存储在磁盘上的特定位置

  • 支持 WebDAV

此外,还添加了一个控件,允许外部存储后端和组件的配置和可视化操作。当选择外部存储时,存储模式 (文件或目录) 控件当前不可见,并且相对路径设置被隐藏,这是因为相对路径与外部存储数据不相关。

图层图例

Feature: Use placeholder icon in legend for raster layers

A new feature has been added to allow the selection of a placeholder image which may be used in the legend item of a raster or vector layer. This is very useful in certain instances such as when using raster layers with QGIS server, preventing long lists of palleted values from GetLegendGraphic requests and instead returning a tailored result, among various other use cases.

Analysis Tools

Feature: Add if() function to raster calculator

A long awaited feature has been for QGIS to support simple if() statements in the raster calculator.

Although conditional statements have been supported in the raster calculator for a while, the syntax and structure of the expressions was often verbose and complex.

The raster calculator will now support simple conditional statements with the common syntax of if ( condition , option1 , option2 ) whereby if the condition evaluates to true, the first option will be used, otherwise the second option will be used.

image33

This feature was developed by Francesco Bursi

Feature: Virtual raster support in raster calculator

Virtual raster data provider support has been added to the QGIS raster calculator, which now allows users to perform raster calculator operations without specifying an output file or writing the resulting raster to disk.

This option is enabled via the UI by checking the "Create on-the-fly raster instead of writing layer to disk" checkbox in the raster calculator, and is also supported via the PyQgis API.

Resulting raster layers may be used in further analysis operations and allow for user specified raster names. Where a name is not provided for the resulting raster, it will be named according to the formula used to generate it.

image34

This feature was developed by Francesco Bursi

空间运算

Feature: Annotation layer parameter type for processing

An annotation layer parameter type has been added to the QGIS Processing Framework, which includes a new algorithm for converting main annotation layer items to secondary annotation layers. This is useful for moving items created in the main layer to a secondary layer, so that the item placement can be adjusted within the layer stack.

此项功能由 Nyall Dawson 开发

Feature: Add a POST option to the FileDownloader processing algorithm

Add a choice between performing GET or POST requests when downloading a file using the FileDownloader processing tool.

If the POST parameter is specified, some DATA can be added in the query.

This is useful in many contexts, such as for sending longer requests to the Overpass API using POST to download OSM data.

This feature was funded by 3Liz

This feature was developed by Étienne Trimaille

Feature: Add new "Select within distance" and "Extract within distance" algorithms

New algorithms have been provided which allow users to select or extract features from one layer which are within a certain distance of features from another reference layer.

The distance checking is heavily optimized, using spatial indices to restrict the number of features retrieved, and also automatically handling off the check to the database server for layers using the PostGIS provider.

Additionally, the distance parameter may be a data-defined. property

功能:用于地理处理的点云参数

QGIS 地理处理中添加了一个新的点云参数---框架,允许过滤地图图层中的点云图层和多个图层参数。这为原生点云算法打开了大门,并改进了对第三方提供商的点云支持。

此功能由 Alexander Bruy 开发

功能:移除 GPS 导入插件

GPS 工具的最后一项功能已移植到三种新的地理处理算法中,即:

  • 转换GPS数据

  • 将GPS数据上传到设备

  • 从设备下载GPS数据

因此,GPS 导入插件已变得多余并已从 QGIS 中完全移除。

此项功能由 Nyall Dawson 开发

功能:转换 GPX 要素类处理算法

转换 GPX 要素类工具已从 GPS 工具移植到新的地理处理算法,该算法使用 GPSBabel 工具将 GPX 要素从一种类型转换为另一种类型 (例如,将所有航点要素转换为路径要素)。

它的设计目的是作为工作流的替换品,该工作流之前使用 GPS 工具插件中的功能,但作为 QGIS 处理框架的一部分,其所有好处和改进都会自动实现。

此项功能由 Nyall Dawson 开发

功能:添加带有取模选项的增量字段

该算法允许用户添加一个带有整数的列,该整数将从 START 递增到限制,并有可能在该组之后的 START 值处继续分组。

包括一个称为 "取模计数" 的选项,如果达到取模值,将计数重置为起始值,对取模选项使用 0 值将禁用它。

This feature was developed by Loïc Bartoletti

Feature: Duration parameter

A brand new duration parameter was added to the processing framework to facilitate the creation of temporal-related algorithms.

此功能由 Mathieu Pellerin 开发

Feature: Spatiotemporal ST-DBSCAN clustering algorithm

QGIS 3.22 ships with a brand new spatiotemporal ST-DBSCAN clustering algorithm which clusters point features based on a 2D implementation of spatiotemporal density-based clustering of applications with noise (ST-DBSCAN) algorithm.

Feature: Move non-native processing providers into independent plugins

In line with the discussion in QEP 226, the SAGA, GRASS, and OTB providers have been separated into independent plugins.

This should prevent issues with the loading of the Processing plugin in cases where any one of these providers is broken. It will also make it easier to convert them into third-party plugins in the future.

The SAGA and GRASS plugins are enabled by default, leaving the UX unchanged. The OTB provider can be enabled in the Plugin Manager if necessary, however, the enabling or disabling of any of these providers is now performed via the Plugin Manager as with any other plugin.

This is mostly an internal change, with the only visible change on the part of end-users being that the Plugin Manager is used to activate or deactivate the SAGA, GRASS, and OTB providers.

Application and Project Options

Feature: Export all keyboard shortcuts to XML or PDF

Historically, when exporting keyboard shortcuts to an XML file, QGIS would only export user-defined shortcuts. In instances where no customized shortcuts were found, an empty file would be created.

A new option has been provided to export all available keyboard shortcuts to the resulting XML file, or to generate a PDF output with a list of all defined QGIS shortcuts.

此项功能由 Nyall Dawson 开发

Feature: Set default path structure for new projects

QGIS Desktop historically supported the definition of whether a particular project used an absolute or relative structure from the project properties, however, the default setting for this functionality was always configured to use relative paths.

A new setting has been exposed which allows users to set the default path structure to use either absolute or relative for new projects under the program options. In much the same way the default project format may be configured to use qgz or qgs, this is made available as a global property specific to each user profile.

This feature was developed by mhugent

Feature: Allow configuration of the max cache size from QGIS settings

In the qgis_global_settings.ini file, it's possible to set the max image cache size in bytes.

The cache is used for caching symbology and layout images, If high resolution images are used for printing layout, then this value should be increased accordingly.

Default value is 100mb.

浏览器

Feature: Improved delete action for browser files

The delete action used from the QGIS browser has been improved in various ways, including:

  • The action is more consistent and applied to all file type items

  • Multiple file deletion is now supported by selecting multiple file items in the browser which includes a confirmation prompt

  • Before deleting files, the current project is scanned to see if it is using any of the files. If so, a prompt is shown asking users if they want to cancel the deletion, or delete and remove layers, or delete and retain layers.

此项功能由 Nyall Dawson 开发

Feature: Connections API result widget

As a part of the ongoing efforts to port the table management functionalities from the DB Manager to the QGIS Browser, as detailed in QEP 205, a new SQL dialog is available from the browser panel which provides the ability to execute queries and SQL statements for the following elements:

  • DB connections

  • Schema items

  • Table items

The implementation also supports the following advanced functionalities:

  • A multi-threaded implementation for both API token fetching and row fetching results in non-blocking GUI operations

  • Fully interruptible API

  • Support for progressive loading of features in the results view (fetchMore API)

此功能由 Alessandro Pasotti 开发

Data Providers

Feature: Transactions in MSSQL provider

Addition of transaction support to the MSSQL data provider.

There are no GUI-related changes, as users can enable transactional editing as with other providers. This is done by going to the Project Properties and checking "Automatically create transaction groups where possible" in the Data Sources tab.

By default, a running transaction in MSSQL will block other clients from accessing the same data. For example, if one client starts a transaction and adds or modifies a feature in a table, other clients will get blocked when trying to read any data from the table until the transaction is completed.

There is database-level configuration option, READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT, which is OFF by default.

Activating this will change the behavior to function in a similar fashion as other RDBMS systems such as PostgreSQL, in that transactions do not cause blocking and enables the database to support multiple versions of data. This is a database-level property configured by the administrator and can not be automatically set by QGIS when connecting to the database, however it may be activated using the following query:

ALTER DATABASE my_db SET READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT ON

In most instances where transactions are desired, activating this option is likely recommended to prevent freezing in QGIS or other clients.

Feature: Show system and internal tables in sublayer selection

A check box has been added to the sublayer selection dialog to control whether system and internal tables should be shown. This will be turned off by default, but will be useful in instances where users have a particular need to load a system table into QGIS for viewing or manipulation purposes.

Feature: Automatically read and convert metadata from ESRI Personal Geodatabases

Previously this was supported for File Geodatabases and shp.xml metadata, but it is now also supported for ESRI personal geodatabases (.mdb files)

Requires GDAL 3.4+

Feature: Create a generic data item provider for all file based datasources

This provider uses the QgsProviderRegistry::querySublayers API to automatically create appropriate browser data items for all file based sources, regardless of the underlying provider whether it may be mdal, gdal, ogr, pdal, or ept.

This allows the merging of sources which can be handled by multiple different providers into single container items in the browser, which may be expanded to display all related or nested elements. It is common for many file types, such as GeoPDF or KML/KMZ files to may contain raster and vector layers, or .nc files which may be accessed as a mesh or raster depending on the data provider.

QGIS 服务器

Feature: Enable multiple MetadataUrls

QGIS Server historically only supported the provision of a single metadata URL, but will now allow multiple metadata endpoints to be specified in the service definition.

Feature: Add version to QGIS Server CLI tools

It's quite a common practice to have arguments like -v and --version for tools accessed via command line interfaces (CLIs), so new --version and it's alias -v have been added to identify QGIS version information for the following tools:

  • qgis_process

  • qgis_mapserv.fcgi

  • qgis_mapserver

Programmability

Feature: Expose scriptable vector tile encoder

An additional writeSingleTile method in QgsVectorTileWriter has been exposed to enable the encoding of a single vector tile to a memory buffer. This may support workflows for PyQgis and QGIS Server which include support for vector tiles.

This feature was developed by David Marteau

Feature: Encode and write vector tiles in different CRS than EPSG:3857

The QGIS API has been extended to support encoding and writing vector tiles in a different CRS than EPSG:3857.

Note that according to the Mapbox Vector Tile specification, a Vector Tile represents data based on a square extent within a projection. A Vector Tile should contain information about its bounds and projection. The file format assumes that the decoder knows the bounds and projection of a Vector Tile before decoding it.

Feature: DistanceWithin filter for QgsFeatureRequest

An option has been added to QgsFeatureRequest to request features within a certain distance of a reference geometry

This is made possible by the new enum Qgis::SpatialFilterType which has been added to reflect whether a request uses no spatial filter, a BoundingBox filter (via setFilterRect), or the new DistanceWithin filter.

For example, the following request will retrieve all features within 50 map units of the provided linestring:

QgsFeatureRequest().setDistanceWithin(QgsGeometry.fromWkt('LineString(0 0, 10 0, 12 1)'), 50)

Distance within filters are treated like bounding box filters, in that they are independent of any attribute/id filters (such as feature ids or expressions).

Provider feature iterators can potentially delegate the distance within search to the backend. So, for example, the PostgreSQL data provider could use an ST_DWithin query for optimal index use.

Feature: API for preset combobox values

An API has been added to allow a string parameter to show as a combobox with preset choices in processing GUI tools.

In some circumstances, it is desirable to restrict the values available when a user is asked to enter a string parameter that should match a list of predetermined "valid" values, yet these values will vary installation by installation.

For example, a "printer name" parameter, where it may be desired that users may pick a name value from a list of printers installed on the system, but since the printer names will vary between installations, an enum parameter is not a suitable choice.

This is now supported by setting the "value_hints" option in the widget wrapper metadata, as demonstrated below.

Whilst this provides a mechanism for guiding users to select from valid string values when running a Processing algorithm through the GUI, it does not place any limits on the string values accepted via PyQGIS codes or when running the algorithm via other means that do not use the GUI. Algorithms should gracefully handle other values accordingly.

param = QgsProcessingParameterString( 'PRINTER_NAME', 'Printer name')
# show only printers which are available on the current system as options
# for the string input.
param.setMetadata( {'widget_wrapper': { 'value_hints': ['Inkjet printer', 'Laser printer'] } })

Feature: QgsExifTools class support for fetching tag values

The QgsExifTools class can now retrieve individual exif tags from images using the readTag function.

E.g.: QgsExifTools.readTag('/my/photo/0997.JPG'), 'Exif.Image.DateTime')

Known exif tags representing time values are automatically converted to Q{Date,Time,DateTime} objects. This makes working with those tags much easier and integrates well with other parts of the QGIS API.
