Enhancements

  • The right sidebar has been redesigned. It now uses a tab bar to switch
    between info, time-series charts, new statistics, and 3-D panels.
    Numerous info panel styles have been adapted to harmonise with the common
    style of the UI.

  • Introduced a statistics panel, where basic statistics for the currently
    selected variable, selected timestamp, and selected place can be computed
    and displayed. If the place is an area, statistics include include
    minimum, maximum, mean, standard deviation, and a histogram. For
    point places the value at the point is displayed.

  • Introduced a variable comparison mode. Users can now go to the layer
    visibility dropdown menu (see below) and enable the variable compare mode.
    This will make the variable layer fully transparent for initially one
    half of the map area. User can swipe a bar to shrink or enlarge the area.
    By selecting a secondary data variable using a new tool button next to the
    variable selector, a second variable layer will be rendered below the current
    variable layer. Using the compare mode the following layers can be inspected
    next to the currently selected variable (in this order): Variable 2 layer,
    Basemap layer Dataset RGB layer. (#286)

  • Users can now define their own color bars. The new feature can be found
    in the color selector that pops up if clicking the color bar legend.
    A new category "Users" provides an add-button to add a new color bar
    definition. Existing custom color bars can be edited and deleted.
    This feature requires xcube server >= 1.6. (#334)

  • Users can now select the data normalisation function to be applied before
    the actual color mapping takes place. Three functions are available:

    • Lin: linear mapping of data values between min and max to colors.
    • Log: logarithmic mapping of data values between vmin and vmax to colors.
    • Cat: direct mapping of categorical data values into colors.

  • Improvements of the time-series charts:

    • Users can now zoom into arbitrary regions of a time-series chart
      by pressing the CTRL key of the keyboard. (#285)
    • It is now possible to toggle showing the info popup when hovering
      over the chart.
    • User can fix the y-range of the chart by entering min and max values.
    • Users can now change the chart type (point, line, bars) and toggle
      showing standard deviation directly from the time-series chart's action
      bar.

  • Introduced draggable layer visibility menu that can be opened from the
    control bar. It also includes a new RGB layer from a secondary dataset
    so that now two different RGB layers can be compared.

  • Introduced user-defined layers:

    • Users can now define their own base maps and overlay layers from
      WMS servers or tiled web maps (=XYZ).
    • Active base maps and overlay layers can be selected in the settings.

  • It is now possible to specify the map view behaviour when a new dataset or
    place is selected. In the settings, users can now choose between doing
    nothing, fly to the center of dataset bounding box or the place,
    or fly to the center and zoom to the extent of the dataset or place.

  • Specific "locate" actions have been added to the dataset and place selectors.
    At the same time the general "locate" action has been removed from the
    control bar.

  • The map setting "Show dataset boundaries" is now stored in the browser's
    local storage.

  • The current variable layer is now always on top of the RGB layer of the
    same dataset, if switched on. Layer opacity only affects the variable
    layer, not the RGB layer.

  • Fixed problem with color bar selector that occurred if a variable
    used an unknown color bar name.

Other Changes

  • Numerous changes regarding development environment renewal and
    code quality improvements:

    • Changed the development environment from create-react-app
      and yarn to vite and npm. (#296)
    • Reformatted code base with prettier
      using its default settings.
    • Project CI now also runs ESlint.
    • Updated copyright headers of source files.
    • Removed all usages of explicit any type in TypeScript files.
    • No longer using deprecated adaptV4Theme() function from @mui/material.
    • Applied new MUI v5 styling defaults.
