OpenJUMP 1.3


The free, Java-based and open source Geographic Information System for the World
The JUMP Pilot Project is a sponsor of volunteer and open source development of the JUMP GIS Workbench, the most promising cross-platform Java GIS program to date. The result of this collaboration is the OpenJUMP software, a collaborative version of JUMP

What's New in This Release:

  • New attribute classification methods work now with integer attributes too.

  • WMS Encoding layer names and format properly.

  • Add, remove and fix three small scripts in the BeanTools script directory

  • Fixed issue/feature request 1938020 selections generated with
  • the spatial query function can now be deleted

  • Fixed issue (bugreport) 1786353 improved Layer description for A/B,
  • i.e. what source and what target layer is.

  • Fixed issue (bugreport) 1779771 removed confusing scale units / label.

  • Fixed bug 2673544 made Cut Polygon Tool undo-able.

  • Fixed bugs 2628678 and 2514296 Auto Complete Polygons is now
  • undo-able and adds polygons only to an editable layer (i.e. the
  • tool choses the next editable layer for drawing or creates
  • a new layer).

  • Fixed bug 2660257 enabled reading of LinearRing geometries
  • from JML files.

  • Added layer context menu functions for Pirol/Sextante raster images.

  • Created new "statistics" menu in tools. Moved feature-, layer-,
  • and attribute statistics functions into the menu.

  • Newly created layers are marked with featureCollectionModified=true.
  • So when OpenJUMP is closed, it should ask for saving the data.

  • Integrated RasterImageLayer from Pirol this will allow to
  • use Sextante with OpenJUMP directly (when Sextante bindings are changed too).

  • Integrated Layer Statistics tool from Pirol.
  • To be found in /Tools/Analysis/One Layer/Attribute Statistic Overview

  • Added further 1-D Classification methods for ColorTheming.
  • Besides using the equal-interval and equal-number methods,
  • class breaks can now be calculated using i) Mean-Standard Deviation,
  • ii) maximal breaks, iii) Jenks optimal breaks.
  • Note: The equal-number breaks calculation has been replace with one contained
  • in Classifier1D to keep consistent with API methods (however, tests show that
  • the old and the new method deliver slightly different results)

  • Integrated Jython tools from ISA / SkyJUMP.

  • Disabled plugin that allows panning with keys due to feedback with layer navigation
  • to re-enable add the following line to default-plugin.xml

  • Added functions to sort categories by name and number of features

  • Added changes to openjump.sh script from Peppe, so loading of JYthon should
  • work with Debian now (and not only with Windows)

  • Replaced jts 1.9 with jts 1.10

  • Added function to delete features from a layer that have the same geometry.

  • Fixed bug 1821235 : with respect to loading *.ECW images

  • New Function: Search All Attributes aims to add search engine capability to a gis.

  • Added function to simplify polygons if they are part of a tesselation in Tools/Generalization.

  • Added function to extract boundaries of polygons in Tools/Edit Geometry/Convert/.
  • This function can be used to simplify the boundaries and then to recreate
  • simplified polygons.

  • Internationalization for Extract Point plugin.

  • Removal of ISA simplification plugin (made init as comment in default-plugins.xml).

  • Modified findMaxStringLength in Shape File Writer to not allow zero length string fields

  • Fixed bug with cutting polygon with hole and linestring did
  • not go through the hole.

  • Make the original JUMP NoteTool available as a PlugIn.

  • Fix the size of combo boxes in the simple query editor
  • to prevent the query dialog panel to become too large

  • Applied a patch from Hisaji Ono to write 2 bytes character
  • correctly in dbf files

  • Fixed bug in PlanarGraphPlugIn

  • Added PlugIn to Combine Selected Layers both geometry and attributes
  • with automatic colour theming on created layer attribute.

  • Display of number of features per layer for layer-name tooltip

  • Re-ordering of menu items

  • Added support to for extending multiple selected LineStrings or joining
  • two with a connection

  • Added new tool to extract point features from other layer with other geometry types

  • Added Larry's Clip-To-Fence function from ISA Tools

  • Extended Thiessen polygon creation to be aware of a delineating
  • background polygon (i.e. points are sorted out and polygon is used
  • for clipping)

  • Added Larry's Auto-Assign-Attribute function from ISA Tools

  • Enabled the Union check box when Get Distance from Attributes is checked.

  • Added patch by Bing to parse single bytes in dbf files, which is better
  • for chinese characters [see email topic on googlegroups: "patchs for
  • reading dbf files with multi-bytes character columns"]

  • Added error checking to prevent problems after pasting a Style
  • that refers to a missing Attribute.

  • Updated snapping policy to allow snapping to lines of multi polygons
  • (and geometry collections in general).

  • Changed BufferPlugIn to take advantage of new UnaryUnionOp.union() method of JTS 1.9

  • Fixed null pointer when reading from project file.

  • Set the default button for Enter key to the OK.

  • Replace old progressiveUnion optimization by the new UnaryUnionOp of
  • JTS 1.9 which is much faster

  • Replace string intern() by a local hashmap to avoid duplicating strings
  • when reading Shape/DBF files

  • (Re-)Enabled the styling of basic style + vertex style.

  • Added the Plume tool to the Tools->Generate menu. Select a single
  • LineString and enter start and end radii.

  • Moved all "advanced" plugin functionality to the "default-plugins.xml" file.
  • Basic functionality (such as file i/o, viewing and styling) is still loaded
  • from the OpenJumpConfiguration file.

  • Added new command-line parameter "-default-plugins" to load a "second"
  • properties file. Plugins read from a properties file with
  • "-default-plugins" will be loaded before the plugins from
  • "-workbench-properties". It is intended to deliver a "default-plugins.xml"
  • in the /bin/ directory of OpenJUMP. (Note: using two properties files
  • enables to separate general OJ plugins from own functions)

  • Added Multi-Ring-Buffer Function for selected objects (a similar function
    can be found in ArcGIS:
  • http://webhelp.esri.com/arcgisdesktop/9.2/index.cfm?TopicName=multiple_ring_buffer_(analysis) )

  • Added "Get distance from attribute" option to Buffer.
  • Currently it disables the Union option.

  • Fixed a null pointer when selected layer is no WMS layer.


  • Added capability to select image format for WMS layers/requests.

  • Changed naming of rules for color theming styles.

  • Added exporting of angle attribute for label styles.

  • Improved/re-added SLD import of color theming styles.

  • Added patch from Jakko which allows use of WMS servers protected
  • with basic HTTP authentication. Credentials are taken from URL,
  • which can be entered as 'http://user:password@server/path'

  • Added new function to intersect two layers that contain
  • polygons under /Tools/Two Layers/. The function allows in
  • a second step to transfer the attributes from both
  • source layers.

  • Enabled loading of Mr.SID layers using the new OpenFramework
  • (note: problems exist with deleting the temp-jpg-files in
  • MrSIDReferencedImage.paint)

  • Fixed parsing of WMS capabilities without GetFeatureInfo section.

  • Added wms-default url to http://openaerialmap.org/wms/, bug [1944641]

  • Fixed bug [1729554] in extension manager

  • Added Auto Complete Polygon Tool from Uni Hannover via Malte W.

  • New Synchronization menu that allows to make a mosaic of several map windows
  • and to synchronize those map window when panning and zooming
