+GeoLibre 2.2 is a stable release. It includes the map workspace, the `.geolibre.json` project format with Save, Open, and Share, the plugin API, and the plugin marketplace for installing, updating, and removing external plugins. Data support spans browser vector import, DuckDB-WASM Spatial loading, the full Add Data surface (files, web services, cloud formats, 3D layers, and databases), and cloud integrations through the Planetary Computer and Earth Engine panels, the Overture Maps plugin, and the federal Web Services plugins. Processing covers the vector tools (Turf.js with an optional GeoPandas sidecar), the raster tools (rasterio sidecar with a client-side fallback), a Spectral Index toolbox, a Raster Georeferencer, a Spatial Statistics toolbox, network analysis (isochrones, service areas, OD cost matrices), the Conversion menu (GeoParquet, FlatGeobuf, PMTiles, COG), the Whitebox toolbox, AI Segmentation via SamGeo/SAM 3, and the SQL Workspace for DuckDB Spatial SQL (with PGlite PostGIS and Apache Sedona engines). The release also ships a docked Notebook panel that runs Jupyter beside the map (JupyterLite on the web, a desktop JupyterLab server), a Field Collection tool for capturing point, line, and polygon observations, real-time multi-user collaboration, a scroll-driven story map builder, a natural-language AI assistant and in-app Python Console, multi-provider geocoding, the Time Slider plugin, a Controls menu (Measure, Bookmark, Minimap, View State), a Print menu, Layout settings, runtime environment variables, diagnostics, embed-friendly URL parameters including the `maponly` mode, cross-platform installers (including a macOS Homebrew Cask and a Windows Microsoft Store listing), and Docker support for the browser app. GeoLibre also ships as a native **Android** app built from the same codebase via Tauri v2 mobile (see [Android](android.md)), with a responsive touch layout for phones, and offline improvements (a Download Offline Area tool plus service-worker caching of the CDN-loaded Pyodide and PGlite/PostGIS engines). Version 2.0 adds a CesiumJS 3D globe view for any map pane, planetary mapping (Mars and the Moon from OpenPlanetaryMap, plus Mercury, Venus, the Galilean moons, Titan, Pluto, and Charon from USGS Astrogeology reprojected to Web Mercator, with a per-project ellipsoid and a planet switcher in the Layers panel), symbology interchange that imports and exports vector styling as OGC SLD, QGIS QML, and Mapbox GL style JSON, editable source layers that write vector edits back to GeoPackage, GeoJSON, and PostGIS, a Weather menu with live cloud and precipitation radar overlays and a sun position simulation, and new Mapillary, Historical Imagery, and Elevation Profile plugins. Version 2.1 adds a QGIS-style Browser panel (Data Source Manager) for browsing services, PostGIS databases, local files, and favorites from one place; route animation that sends a marker along a line layer with 3D track-follow camera controls and MP4 export; in-browser ONNX/YOLO object detection; map recording of the canvas or a drawn bounding box to video; a native-resolution geotagged photo viewer; Wikipedia knowledge cards; USGS basemaps for nine more celestial bodies; and a new OpenAerialMap imagery search plugin. Version 2.2 adds a styling overhaul (a rule-based renderer with per-rule symbol properties, scale-dependent visibility, and nested rules, a Style Manager preset library, diagram symbology, and a symbology pack of inverted-polygon masks, arrow and marker lines, and geometry generators); a shared Expression Builder wired into filters, labels, styling, and selection, driving a data-defined labeling engine and Select by Expression; virtual fields, persistent attribute joins, an attribute form designer, and a Raster Attribute Table; Atlas / map series generation in the Print Layout; browser-native COG, FlatGeobuf, Shapefile, GeoPackage, and Vector to PMTiles conversions; live GPS tracking; data quality tools (check validity, fix geometries, check topology); a Processing History panel; and new Natural Earth and Source Cooperative data browsers.
