- GeoPackage exports now
- have a single table for the locations of all users
- have an R-tree index on the user location table
- do not have a table for the latest location of all users
- save the user name, display name, accuracy, altitude, bearing, and speed for user locations

- GeoPackage export used a non-unique value for column names mapped from fields.
- GeoPackage export did not scrub file system special characters from export file names.
- The locations MongoDB collection was missing indexes that caused memory errors for exports.
- SAML settings
This migration modifies documents in the
authenticationconfigurationscollection by moving all entries fromsettings.optionsintosettingsand removing theoptionsentry. See the related bug fix below.
- Admins can now configure different placename search services in settings.
- Layer file download - The Layer admin web page now includes a button to download layer files when applicable. This currently works only for GeoPackage layers.
- The web app and service incorrectly used a
settings.optionssub-document on SAML configurations to read and write some entries that should be in thesettingsentry. - Admin user search could crash the server when sending certain characters.
- Feed item timestamps appeared as epoch milliseconds rather than formatted dates.
- Many third-party dependencies were quite outdated or superfluous.
- Fortify static code analysis had findings that were addressed.
- GeoPackage and CSV exports had several null reference bugs.
- Some TypeScript DTS files for plain JS files were incorrect or incomplete.
- The ready event for app startup was emitting before the HTTP server was actually listening.
- The service configuration did not allow a port value of
0, which prompts the HTTP server to pick a random open port. This helps with testing.
- Docker image now installs MAGE packages from NPM registry instead of local tarballs.
- Use a shrinkwrap file for consistent
@ngageoint/mage.serviceinstalls.
- The server was not saving location provider information, such as accuracy and location source, e.g.,
gpsormanual. - Previous 6.2.x releases were missing bug fixes from 6.1.3 and 6.1.2.
- The service package did not always install better-sqlite3, which GeoPackage requires to perform operations in the Node.js runtime.
- Numeric form field validation failed when the field was required and the field value was zero.
- In Node 18, GeoPackage operations threw an error,
Error: Unable to initialize canvas. The library was updated to version 4.2.4 to resolve the error.
- Return 404 status reponse for empty geopackage tile generation.
- Return feature and tile tables from geopackage utility getTables method.
- The observation download API incorrectly imported a library function causing a bad reference.
- The Degrees-Minutes-Seconds (DMS) location form fields on the Observation Edit view now use an input mask for more natural manual entry.
- The DMS location form allows typing leading zeros in all the coordinate parts.
- The DMS form parses both latitude and longitude from pasted text if available.
- Eliminate inconsistencies between DMS parsing and validation.
- Fix user role translation
- Allow WebP and GIF image attachments on observations.
- Redact passwords from user JSON documents with local authentication configured.
- A corrupted data scenario when a user's related authentication document was missing crashed the server.
- Image Plugin - mark attachments oriented on failures to avoid unlimited retries.
- A query parameter in the new user search was wrong.
- Remove all dots from web plugin IDs so UI Router does not interpret them as route hierarchy.

- Added administrative settings to enable automatic approval of new user accounts and devices. If you are using a third party authentication strategy where user accounts have already been vetted, you can reduce the barrier to entry into MAGE by using this setting to automatically approve user accounts. In addition you can reduce the device admin approval barrier to entry by automatically approving all new devices. Administrators can still disable devices for any reason, therby removing access to MAGE for that device.

This will prevent duplicate observations if the client loses the response from the POST.
- Multi select checkbox for dropdowns fixed

- Added form import error handling on web client.
- Fixed feed layout height in Firefox.
- OSM geocoder added. Search addresses from the MAGE map. On successful search the map will pan an zoom to that location.
