GeoNode 5.1.0 Release

Blog, News ‐ Posted on 13.10.2026 by Giovanni Allegri

Dear Reader, Here is a closer look at GeoNode 5.1.0, the first feature release built on top of the renewed 5.0 architecture. The release notes list everything in detail. Where GeoNode 5 was about rebuilding foundations, 5.1.0 is about putting those foundations to work. It significantly broadens the range of data GeoNode can catalogue and publish, and it tightens the controls around how that data is shared. Two themes run through this release. The first is reach: GeoNode now handles data that has no geometry at all, and data that never leaves the remote server it is hosted on. The...

Print Composer for MapStore and GeoNode, built on the GeoServer stack: the crowdfunding campaign is open

Blog, News ‐ Posted on 29.09.2026 by simone giannecchini

Dear Reader, Printing in MapStore and GeoNode still relies on an ageing integration with MapFish Print 2, built around a single map. Dashboards, GeoStories and multi-page documents cannot be printed properly. This year we built a working prototype of a new Print Composer: design the page, preview it live, print it. Maps, dashboards, GeoStories and atlases with one page per feature, rendered by a new open-source print engine built on GeoTools. You can see it in action in the 5-minute demo. Atlas mode: one layout, one page per feature. Watch the full demo on YouTube. Now we want to bring...
