LIDAR Explorer - Revision History

Revision Notes:

Version 1.5.0, 10-31-06

• Points may now be exported in Microstation DAT format for use in generating TIN   files in addition to the xyz comma delimited format.

Version 1.5.0, 10-03-06

• Contour export has been added (beta!)  This is a completely functional, but beta      release.  Processing speed and a few additional features still need work.
• (Note: There were several undocumented releases between 1.1 and 1.4 consisting      of bug fixes and minor enhancements.  These all should be replaced by the official 1.5.0 release.)

Version 1.1.0, 7-23-04

• Misc bug fixes to increase stability.

Version 1.0.0, 3-31-04

• Final production version.

Version 0.2.17 Beta (3/30/04)

• Full database compression is now supported.
• The aerial photograph can now be toggled on/off from the toolbar and menu.
• Updated panning resulting in somewhat more fluid performance and sligthly lower memory usage.
• Changed pickbox color so as not to conflict with property lines.
• Updated splash and about box to display correctly at other screen  resolutions.

Version 0.2.0 Beta (3/29/04)

• Linework is now fully supported.

Version 0.1.91 Beta (3/25/04)

• Support for referencing a linework database has been added to the file format. The file format has been updated to version 1.2.  Linework support has not yet been added to the application.

Version 0.1.88 Beta (3/24/04)

• Support for multiple elevation models (NGVD29/NAVD88) has been added. This does require a change in the IDX file because it stores the differences in the models.  This update will still work with older IDX files.  New IDX files however will not work with older versions of Lidar Explorer. If you are prompted with and Error: Incompatable version, then you need to update Lidar Explorer.
• Setup package has been updated so that files in use are replaced after rebooting.  This should fix problems installing on Windows 2000. Administrator privileges may be required.

Version 0.1.83 Beta (3/16/04)

• Network access has been fixed.  The application will now access data files across a network at reasonable speeds. (Local access is also faster).

Version 0.1.81 Beta  (3/10/04)

• Shared file access bugs fixed.
• Installation bugs fixed related to registering DLL files.

Version 0.1.77 Beta  (2/10/04)

• A new installer is now being used to reduce installation problems.
• A bug resulting in duplicate exported points has been fixed.
• Export screen updated. Exporting contours is not yet fully implemented.
