About uDig 1.2

The uDig 1.2 series highlights a lot really great ideas the developer community has been playing with. We have upgraded the version of the GeoTools library we use - bringing give years of new developments in standard support, and a host of new raster and vector formats. An exciting addition is the use of the ImageIO-ext project allowing the use of raster formats supported by GDAL.

New and experimental capabilities of uDig 1.2 include:

ImageIO-EXT rendering enabling additional raster formats and working with images larger then memory
Tiled rendering (as an option in preferences) with a new flicker free panning tool.
Support for GeoWebCache and TileServer via WMS-C
WFS 1.1.0 support
Greatly improved ArcSDE support; multithreaded and faster.
