Summary

Felt has renewed its sponsorship of QGIS as a Flagship Sustaining Member, reinforcing its commitment to advancing mapping technologies by supporting tools valuable to its community. This partnership leverages the strengths of QGIS's desktop GIS capabilities with Felt's web-based collaboration tools, enhancing the mapping experience for users across various fields such as urban planning and environmental research. A significant development in this collaboration is the improved "Add To Felt" QGIS plugin, developed by North Road, which now supports local raster layers, public XYZ layers, and improved retention of QGIS styles within Felt by converting QML to FSL. These enhancements broaden data sharing capabilities while maintaining the stylistic integrity of maps, facilitating more efficient and effective teamwork. Users are encouraged to explore these new features as Felt and QGIS continue to innovate in mapping and spatial analysis.
