v1.0.0-beta.1
Pre-release
We're getting close to the first stable GeoParquet release! We may have one or two more beta releases after gathering feedback from implementors, but we don't have any other planned breaking changes before 1.0.0. Please give it a try and create issues with your feedback.
The 1.0.0-beta.1 release includes a number of metadata changes since the previous 0.4.0 release. One breaking change is that the previous geometry_type metadata property is now named geometry_types. The value is always an array of string geometry types (instead of sometimes a single string and sometimes an array). In addition, we've clarified a number of things in the specification and tightened up the JSON schema to improve validation. See below for a complete list of changes.
