Version 2017.2.0 is planned for release on Friday March 17th 2017 on preview.tygron.com

GIS

  • Dutch CBS data is loaded into the Neighborhood, providing information about the population in the neigborhood (e.g. age, sex, ethnic diversity, etc).
  • Dutch Agriculture is now loaded into the map. The official "gewascode" is also stored as an attribute.
  • Waterhomes are loaded.
  • More sources are optional/selectable via "advanced options" in the Area selection panel.
  • Option to only update values of existing Items via GeoJSON files.

Performance

  • 3D buildings are rendered faster.
  • Loading time of the maps has been improved.
  • Popup performance has also improved (for maps with 100+ popups).
  • Template loading time is improved.
  • Map saving time is 3 times faster.
  • Closing of a running Wizard Session has improved.
  • Improved webserver (network) speed, e.g. updates are directly streamed from memory to the client (usefull for large maps).
  • Performance has also improved (TQL statements are processed faster).
  • Option to lower the accuracy for very large grid overlays, thus improving calculation speed.

Indicators

  • All indicators are Excel based now. This includes the personal finance and housing indicator who are linked via a new TQL statement to a specific Stakeholder. You can also make all other indicators personal (linked to a stakeholder).
  • The QUALITATIVE indicator was hardly used and it functionality can be replaced with TQL/Excel. Thus we have deprecated this Indicator.
  • The API Indicator, like the QUALITATIVE indicator, was rarely used and has been deprecated.
  • Indicators that have an update TQL call will be executed before Indicators that do not. So you can for example update your cost in Indicator 1 after which Indicator 2 (e.g. finance) can read in the new value.
  • All Indicator- and popup panels are now loaded as web pages, giving you more flexibility for styling.
  • Excels can now also use the latest Excel CONCATENATE (CONCAT) function.

TQL

  • New statements to check your budget (REVENUE and EXPENSES).
  • New statement STATE that can be used by your Excel to see if the session was started. 0= editor mode, 1= first calculation round (use to init values at start of session) 2= remainder of session. See housing indicator for an example.
  • Option to load specific Items with the X-query: use XA to select only Items with a specific attribute and add SORT to sort them on a specific attribute.
  • New clauses available: ATTRIBUTE_MAX, ATTRIBUTE_MIN, ATTRIBUTE_MULT, to select Items in a specific attribute range.
  • To prevent roundoff errors, the Grid calculation is done on the orginal calculated values now.
  • Option to set and remove attributes for all Areas at once. And option to create border areas between them.

Overlays

  • The Average Overlay can now also load attributes from Areas and Neighborhoods.
  • Smaller grid cells, down to 0.5mx0.5m per tile.
  • Overlays: livability, avg and heatstress now auto-calculate their range, impoving visual quality and accuracy.
  • GeoTIFF export is done on the orginal values, no round-off values anymore.
  • Server now uses the Tygron Cluster to delegate off GPU calculation tasks, this improves the calculation capacity to 20 GPU's in parrallel (3584 * 20 = 77.080 cores).
  • The Distance Overlay (distance to object) has been changed such that a larger radius - with a maximum of 2km - is now possible.
  • It is now possible to make multiple Distance Overlays (by 'filling' it with any attribute). This also goes for the Average and Sight overlay.
  • The visualization of the Distance Overlay has been improved.

Bugs

  • Multiple bug fixes.
