QGIS Server 3.10.0 has been released on friday 25th of october 2019. This version will the new Long Term Release (LTR) in february 2020.
This new version introduces new features:
- Publishing features through the new OGC API Features (OAPIF) also known as WFS3
- Defining WMS Dimensions to filter GetMap results
- Enhancing the way to use SVG in QGIS Server
QGIS Server now supports OGC API - Features - Part 1: Core also known as WFS3. This is a completely new implementation that provides an HTML and JSON based service for your web mapping developments, a simple WebGIS interface is available out of the box and it is easily customizable through an HTML template system.
More information is available in the documentation.
A WMS server can provide support for several type of dimensions such as time, elevation or other types of dimensions. The dimension has to be defined as the layer level and can be used by the WMS client to filter requested information. WMS Time is part of the WMS Dimension.
Before, using SVG in QGIS Server wasn't really functional. We improved how QGIS Server fetches remote resources such as SVG in the QGIS Server context. It's now possible to use SVG in your layers and publish them as WMS without rendering issues in QGIS Server.
