7.0.7463 version

New features

The 7.0.7463 version introduces the following features:

[CDO/AP] Quickly access your most frequently used files using Favorites.

The Map and Data modules of the flowchart now allow users to quickly access the map and data files they use often to save time.
By default, two map files (France_departements_metropole.geojson / World_countries.geojson) and two data files (France_departements_metropole_population_exemple.xlsx / World_countries_data_sample.xlsx) are suggested as favorites.
You can manage your list of favorites and delete map or data files from the list via the “My account => Favourites” section.

You can add files to your list of Favorites from any of your groups and folders/subfolders (using a right click or the menu bar):

[CDD/CDO/AP] Districting without a known starting point

The new “Genetic districting” option of the Districting module now allows users to break a territory into balanced districts without necessarily having starting points for the districts.

You can also specify specific starting points for some districts and require the Districting module to take them into account when it calculates optimized districts:

[CDD/CDO/AP] New Centroids module

The new Centroids module allows the user to compute the weighted centroid of a group of points or territories depending on an associated quantitative data of “weight” (for example, a sales revenue, a number of interventions to carry out, a number of clients, a workload) and on a distance to them.

If your points or territories are divided into several “groups” using a qualitative data (for example: the name of the agency they are affiliated to), the module can compute a different centroid for each group automatically.

Improvements

The 7.0.7463 version makes the following improvements:

[CDD/CDO/AP] Road distance matrix: using a list of departure-arrival pairs to make computation time shorter

The Road distance module now allows users to use a matrix data to determine a list of journeys to be computed between points or polygons (“Departure ID – Arrival ID” pairs).

This new method makes it possible to limit the computations made by the Road distance module to those particular journeys when users know the precise list of journeys they wish to compute the drive time or distance for. This saves a lot of time on computations.

[CDD/CDO/AP] Database module: support of matrix data

The Database module now allows users to make queries for matrix data originating from their MySQL, MS SQL Server, PostGre SQL databases, or via an ODBC connection.

[CDO/AP] New “Internal” data mode for C&D Online and Articque Platform

The Data module within C&D Online and Articque Platform now offers a new “Internal Data” mode in addition to data from Microsoft Excel files, Text/CSV files and dBase files.

The Internal Data mode allows users to create and fill in data columns directly within the Data module, without using a data file.
Values can be entered or modified manually, directly in the data table within the flowchart creation interface, using input fields or drop-down lists:

The Internal Data mode also allows users to enable the modification of data originating from a file directly within the data table, without needing to modify the content of the file and reupload it afterwards.

[CDD/CDO/AP] MS Word Export: new script commands

Exporting reports in MS Word of PDF format now allows users to use additional script commands to retrieve and insert the name of geographic entities or values contained in data table dynamically within the texts of the document.

[CDD/CDO/AP] Simplification of the interface of the Visualization module

The interface of the Visualization module was simplified to reduce the number of tabs and make accessing its options simpler.
Layer management (visibility, frame/zoom, reordering) can now be configured within the same list.

Patches

The 7.0.7463 version rectifies the items below:

C&D Online / Articque Platform: overwriting a CDX flowchart file with a new version of this file now triggers a warning letting the user know of the impact on the Atlases and Wizards using this flowchart.
C&D Online / Articque Platform: correction of a problem when refreshing the map when using manual districting in Wizard mode.
C&D Desktop / C&D Online / Articque Platform: the WMS module was renamed “Tiles” / “Tiles (WMS)”
C&D Desktop / C&D Online / Articque Platform: the “Tiles” module now uses the “greyscale” style by default.
C&D Online / Articque Platform: Correction of a problem with the recognition of fixed shapes in locked representation modules.
Correction of touch control for the Atlas web when using iOS 13.
Correction of a file generation problem in Multiple maps when identifiers include unauthorized characters in file names: \ / : * ? « < > |
Correction of a failure in atlas generation if the map file was modified outside the flowchart of the atlas.
Correction of the Visualization module: reorganizing layers did not work when the map included more than 10 layers.
