Even after SIS 2.0 is released, we plan to continue to maintain the SIS 1.x line for a few years. It would give some time to users for migrating from GeoAPI 3.x to GeoAPI 4.x at their convenience. Actually we are already doing that process for many years. The SIS "geoapi-4.0" branch is doing development on top of GeoAPI 4.0 development branch, then the work is ported to master (which depends on GeoAPI 3.0.1) from times to times. Currently only the SIS versions on top of GeoAPI 3.0.1 make the official SIS releases.

Roadmap

Apache SIS 1.0 1 has been released in September 2019November 2021. Next version will be 1.0.1 or 1.1. Work done since 1.0 release includes:

• Spatial filters.
• A query language (CQL) for applying those filters.
• Use of PostGIS spatial database.
• Base class for portrayal (i.e. rendering of maps).

• Base class for reproducing some of the functionalities of Java Advanced Imaging (JAI) library.

• Beginning of a JavaFX application for those who have JavaFX pre-installed (we do not redistribute it).
• New map projections (Modified Azimuthal Equidistant, Cassini-Soldner, Orthographic, Satellite-Tracking).
