Release date: 2021-06-18
QGIS 3.20 Odense features a splash screen which displays a section of the earliest map of Denmark’s third largest city, Odense from 1593. The map was published by Georg Braun (1541-1622) in the work Civitates orbis terrarum (Cities of the World). Georg Braun’s maps are all beautiful and were, for the period, produced at a high cartographic level. Civitates orbis terrarum was long the main source of maps of the world’s cities, such as Paris, London, Mexico City and Aden.
The name Odense literally means “Odin’s temple”, and the place may have originally been a shrine to the pagan god Odin. At the bottom left of the map you see the ruins of one of the large Viking-Age ring-shaped fortress, which were constructed in Denmark by the Danish Viking king Harald Bluetooth (died c. 985/86). The ring fortress in Odense is called Nonnebakken.
This release introduces a host of subtle changes and stability updates, reinforcing the vast catalog of cutting-edge features introduced in recent QGIS releases. Included in this release are numerous data management improvements, with some advanced changes to the management and display of CRS systems and projection information. Amongst these improvements to CRS management are the basic support for coordinate epoch of dynamic CRS systems and advanced accuracy integrity warnings, placing QGIS 3.20 firmly at the leading edge of GIS and data management practices for high accuracy systems.
Additionally, users can expect improved metadata management and handling for certain data and metadata types. Another key highlight is the native integration of the nominatim geocoding service, which will allow users to search locations and addresses using data from the OpenStreetMap project directly from the QGIS locator bar.
The QGIS Community has also seen an uptick in activity in the QGIS HUB, as well as the Virtual QGIS Open Days, with the Cutting Edge Open Day showcasing a number of demonstrations which leverage rich QGIS functionality that was introduced in more recent releases.
We would also like to extend a big thank you to the developers, documenters, testers, and all the many folks out there who volunteer their time and effort (or fund people to do so) to make these releases possible. From the QGIS community, we hope you enjoy this release! If you wish to donate time, money, or otherwise get involved in making QGIS more awesome, please wander along to QGIS.ORG and lend a hand!

The previously available shortcuts for opening attribute tables, using filters to display only the selected items or the items visible within the canvas, have been integrated into the Menu Toolbar to facilitate their ease of use and improve the user experience, especially when working with large datasets.
This feature was developed by Raymond Nijssen
The existing ability to “Set Width” and “Autosize” for columns has been extended to apply the resizing of a field to all columns.
This includes the ability to set a fixed width or to “Autosize” all columns. These actions are available from the attribute table header context menu which is accessible by right-clicking a field header.
This feature was developed by Ben Wirf
Starting with QGIS 3.20, users can now easily export and import authentication configurations via a pair of actions in QGIS settings’ authentication panel. Exported configurations can be password-protected to avoid sensitive information leakage.
This greatly eases sharing of various authentication configurations across multiple QGIS users, especially when it comes to more complex configuration methods such as oauth2.
This feature was funded by Ville d’Yverdon-les-Bains

WMS-T settings were simplified and controls were introduced to make it easier to select the desired time for some providers.
Changes were made in order to achieve the following outcomes:
Make it clearer exactly what each of the settings controls
Make the interplay and relationships between the various settings clearer
Make it obvious which settings apply, regardless of whether the layer is controlled by the temporal controller or whether the settings relate only to static WMS-T layers
For servers that expose a non-contiguous set of date-time instances, instead of a range of dates, a combo box is provided removing the need to manually enter valid dates
Example of settings with a server exposing a range of available dates:
Example of settings with a server exposing a list of available datetime instances only:

The Nominatim Geocoder is now natively integrated into QGIS out of the box! QGIS provides a Nominatim locator filter, as well as the “Batch Nominatim Geocoder” processing tool for batch geocoding locations.
Nominatim locator filter
The QGIS locator bar widget (by default, a search bar in the bottom left corner CTRL+K) now supports Nominatim geocode searches by using the prefix ‘>’.
Users may now search for locations using the format > search string
in the locator and will be provided with a selection of results. Selecting a search result will reposition the canvas extent on that location.
Batch Nominatim Geocoder
In addition, a new “Batch Nominatim Geocoder” algorithm has been added to the QGIS processing toolbox under Vector tools, allowing users to geocode multiple locations at once.
Nominatim is a geocoding service that utilizes data from the OpenStreetMap project. Usage limitations and rate limits - 1 query per second - do apply in line with the OpenStreetMap Foundation (OSMF) usage policies, and the data is provided under the terms of the ODbl license. Additionally, queries to the Nominatim service may include telemetry information.
Shipping this great geocoder service by default would not have been possible without the generosity and participation of the OSMF.
This feature was developed by Mathieu Pellerin
The processing’s history dialog has had a series of user interface improvements, including regrouping of algorithms in meaningful folder structures and making use of individual algorithm icons. Searching for that algorithm you ran last week has never been as easy!
This feature was developed by Mathieu Pellerin
The expression builder dialog now displays map layer icons next to the list of layers under the ‘Map Layers’ parent group. This speeds up skipping through the list and provides additional context.
This feature was developed by Mathieu Pellerin
The SVG browser interface now supports simple text-based filtering, allowing users to filter the available SVG images based on a given search string.
This feature was developed by Denis Rouzaud
QGIS provides a new “Interpolated Line” symbol layer type, which results in the rendering of a color and/ or width varying line.
This symbol is highly configurable and allows users to associate attributes or expressions to each line extremity or curve, amongst other configuration options. Values are interpolated along the line string between extremities. Color is configured with a color ramp shader widget.
This feature was funded by Lutra Consulting
This feature was developed by Vincent Cloarec
An option to trim the start and end of simple line symbols was added, allowing for the line rendering to trim off the first and last sections of a line at a user configured distance. It is useful for creating complex symbols where a line layer should not overlap marker symbol layers placed at the start or end positions of a line feature, such as with transport routes. The trim distance supports a range of units, including a percentage of the overall line length, and can also be configured as a data-defined property.
A sample gallery of this functionality in use:
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
A new “Embedded styling” renderer has been added which exposes OGR feature styles, allowing QGIS to automatically symbolize data from certain datatypes which have integrated style information, such as KML or TAB files.
This feature implements QEP-209
Support should extend automatically to all GDAL drivers which implement the OGR feature style API.
Currently only supports line symbol conversion, but point and polygon symbol support is under development.
This functionality also supports the direct conversion of embedded symbol renderers into categorized or rule-based renderers. This enables QGIS to automatically create categories or rules which define symbology based on the relevant feature IDs:
This feature was funded by QGIS Denmark user-group
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
Several new shapes - semi arc and arrow signs - were added to the ellipse marker symbol layer, as well as a setting to modify the cap style for stroke-only ellipse shapes.
This feature was developed by Mathieu Pellerin
QGIS now allows for the pen cap (or line ending) style to be set for simple marker symbol layers, which is useful for the stroke-only symbols like cross and arrowhead markers, where it’s beneficial to allow the use of round caps instead of square caps.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
Ellipse markers now also include support for modifying the pen cap (line ending) styles
This feature was developed by Mathieu Pellerin
A new variable, @geometry_ring_num
, has been added for data-defined styling when rendering polygon rings. The variable is available whenever a polygon outline is being rendered, such as a simple line or marker line. This data-defined property will be set to 0 for the exterior ring, and increment accordingly (1, 2, 3… etc) for successive interior rings.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
Label shields can now use fill symbols for the rectangle, square, circle, and ellipse shapes.
This extends beyond the previously available ability for these shields to utilize simple fill and stroke and grants the ability to leverage the complete symbology capabilities of QGIS for shield rendering, including the utilization of “saved styles”.
This feature was developed by Mathieu Pellerin
Label callouts can now leverage the advanced blending modes from QGIS
This feature was developed by Mathieu Pellerin
In previous versions, when an anchor position for a line label was calculated, QGIS would only consider the visible extent of the feature. This affected the expected label position in some cases, and a new “Use Entire Line” setting allows users to configure the behavior according to their needs, so that the entire feature may be considered before label placement rather than just the portion of a feature that is currently visible.
This feature was funded by Stadt Zürich
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
Balloon callout styles now support rounded corners by introducing a “corner radius” option, resulting in the ability to easily produce visually pleasing designs.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
A new “balloon”, or speech bubble, callout style is provided for labels.
This feature was funded by SLYR
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
A new “Curved Line” callout style has been provided for creating cartographically pleasing curved line callouts between the labels and features
Options include:
Selecting a specific curve orientation (clockwise or counterclockwise)
Automatic orientation option which determines optimal orientation for each individual label
Control over the amount of curvature applied to the callout lines.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
When the “show pinned labels” option is enabled, QGIS will now also highlight any pinned callout start or end points. This allows users to immediately see which callouts points have been manually placed in relation to those that are automatically placed.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
QGIS now automatically manages the creation of callout auxiliary fields when attempting to move a callout start or end point interactively, making the user experience for moving a callout follow the exact same behavior as that of moving a label, preventing the system from forcing users to create auxillary fields in advance.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
When interactively moving a callout line, holding the shift button will now cause the callout to snap angles at increments of 15 degrees
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
A shortcut action to toggle labeling has been added to the context menu of vector layers in the layer panel. This allows for labels to be quickly switched on or off, without losing the label configuration. If a layer has never had labeling configured and the action is checked, then QGIS will attempt to apply a simple labeling configuration to the layer using default parameters.
This feature was funded by Natural resources Canada Contract: 3000720707
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
Label callout lines can now have data-defined starting and ending points, useful for manual control of the exact placement for individual callout lines.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
This change allows the interactive “Move labels” tool to also move callout endpoints, whenever the callout has data-defined origin or destination fields set.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
Point cloud datasets that have been processed to EPT format can be loaded from remote HTTP(S) servers, similar to how raster/vector tiles work. This way, it is possible to access large point cloud datasets without first having to download them as LAS/LAZ files. The EPT format is optimized for tiling and streaming, so QGIS only downloads small amounts of data necessary for display of the current view and resolution. This works in both 2D and 3D view.
If you have point cloud datasets in LAS/LAZ format, these can be converted to EPT using Entwine or Untwine (shipped also with QGIS).
How to use: in Data Source Manager > Point Cloud tab > select “Protocol” as the source type and enter URL of the dataset (normally ending with “ept.json”).
You can test with USGS LiDAR data - just use the link from “EPT” column from one of the datasets. Some example endpoints include:
By the way, every point cloud dataset that QGIS loads is first processed to EPT (look for “ept_XXX” sub-folder where your original data is located), so it is possible to just copy that “ept_XXX” folder to a HTTP(S) server and you are ready to use this feature.
This feature was funded by Hobu
This feature was developed by Belgacem Nedjima (Lutra Consulting)
When using dynamic, or expression-based labels, users may now select the “Convert to Static Text” option which has been added to the dropdown menu next to “Insert/Edit Expression…”, in the layout label properties widget.
This option will evaluate and replace any dynamic parts of a label’s contents with their current values.
This provides an easy way to convert dynamic labels to static ones, so that users can manually tweak the results when needed.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
Handling of XYZ layers previewed in layout map items has been improved to ensure that their tile zoom levels match those of the exported layout while zooming in and out in the layout designer dialog. Users can now more easily refine the placement of their items (labels, legend, images, etc.) against a map preview that better matches the targeted output.
This feature was funded by Kanton Zug - Amt für Raum und Verkehr (ARV)
This feature was developed by Mathieu Pellerin
A “length3D” function has been added for returning the 3D length of a LineGeometry type geometry. This calculates the cartesian 3D length of a geometry line object. If the geometry is not a 3D line object, it returns its 2D length.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
The following array expressions were added:
array_count
array_prioritize
array_replace
This feature was funded by Canton of Luzern
This feature was developed by Damiano Lombardi
The new mime_type( bytes )
expression function returns the MIME Type, or Media type, of an input bytes object
This feature was developed by Alessandro Pasotti
A button to select attributes from the largest geometry has been added to the confirmation dialogue when using the merge features editing tools for polygon and line layers.
This feature was developed by Stefanos Natsis
When streaming digitizing mode is active, points are automatically added following the mouse cursor movement, providing a “freehand drawing” type experience.
Using the “R” key during digitizing operations will toggle streaming digitizing and normal (or circular string) digitizing.
Works with multiple map tools, including creating new line or polygon features, add ring, add part, reshape, split features, split parts, and more.
This feature was funded by Natural resources Canada Contract: 3000720707
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
When enabled, this snapping mode snaps to the beginning or end vertex of lines only. When snapping to a polygon layer, only the first vertex in rings will be snapped to.
This feature was funded by Natural resources Canada Contract: 3000720707
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
Users can now use the ALT button to select vertices by polygon whilst digitizing.
This should improve the user experience for selecting specific vertices using the vertex tool, reducing the need for multiple passes using The SHIFT or CTRL functions to add and remove vertices from the current selection.
This also reduces the need to creatively rotate the map canvas in order to align vertices for selection, and provides an enhanced editing process such as for selecting the vertices of a curved road along a single side only.
This function supports the following usage operations:
Alt+click using the vertex tool to start digitizing a polygon.
Each subsequent click adds a new vertex to the rubberband polygon.
Backspace/ delete removes last added rubberband vertex.
Esc cancels the polygon selection mode, as does backspace/ deleting all of the rubberband’s vertices.
Right-click finalizes the polygon digitizing and selects all vertices within the rubberband polygon.
This feature was developed by Stefanos Natsis
A new “Show CRS accuracy warnings for layers in project legend” is provided which, when checked, will display a new warning icon identifying any layers with a CRS which is identified as having accuracy issues.
Examples of low-accuracy layers might include those with a dynamic CRS with no coordinate epoch available, or a CRS based on a datum ensemble with accuracy that is found to exceed the user-set limit.
This option is disabled by default, and designed for use in engineering, BIM, and other industries where inaccuracies of meter/submeter level are very dangerous.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
Basic support for the coordinate epoch of dynamic (not plate fixed) CRS has been added in line with relevant updates to GDAL.
QGIS has added support for respecting the source or destination coordinate epoch when transforming to or from a dynamic CRS.
If a dynamic CRS to dynamic CRS transformation at different epochs is attempted, which is not currently supported by PROJ, a user-facing warning message will be shown advising them that the results may be misleading and should not be used for high accuracy work.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
Various improvements have been made to the handling and representation of projection information in QGIS, including:
The addition of an API to retrieve PROJ operation details for CRSes
The ability to show extended information about a layer’s CRS in the layer properties info tab, including accuracy warnings
The addition of a @map_crs_projection
variable, for retrieving a friendly name of a map’s projection (e.g. “Albers Equal Area”)
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
QGIS now shows a warning in the projection selection widget when a CRS based on a datum ensemble is selected, warning the user that there’s an inherent lack of accuracy in the selected CRS.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
A “persist layer metadata” checkbox has been added to the export vector file dialog. When checked, any layer metadata present in the source layer will be copied and stored in the destination file.
This functionality is enabled by default and ensures that metadata is properly transferred over to newly created items, which is especially effective when utilizing the GPKG format.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
QGIS now supports “layer notes”, which can be created via the “Add Layer Notes” action in the layer context menu.
These notes are saved per layer, per project. They can be used as a place to store important messages for project users, such as to-do lists, processing or management instructions, or any other arbitrary text-based metadata.
A notepad indicator icon in the layers panel identifies layers that have notes attached. Clicking the notes indicator icon will open the note for editing.
This feature was discussed in QEP-206
These notes may be copied and pasted using the traditional copy/ paste methodology for transferring styles between layers in QGIS.
Layer notes are also supported by and stored within QML (QGIS Style) and QLR (QGIS Layer Definition) files.
This feature was funded by Alta Ehf
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
QGIS will now automatically load and convert ESRI metadata stored using a .shp.xml sidecar file. Where shapefile data is loaded and these metadata files are present they will be loaded automatically, with available layer metadata populated accordingly.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
When loading data from a .gdb file, QGIS will automatically attempt to translate as much as possible of the original ESRI metadata across to the QGIS metadata, so that it’s immediately available for use.
This feature was funded by North Road / SLYR
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
For formats that support the embedded definition of field domains (currently GPKG and GDB), QGIS automatically converts the embedded field domain over to the equivalent QGIS editor configuration for the field.
This means that GPKG/GDB with coded field domains will automatically load into QGIS with their correct Value Map widget configuration intact, so that users see descriptions for field values instead of raw codes. Fields with a range (min/max) type domain will be translated to the range widget for the field as well.
This feature was funded by North Road
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
GeoPackage supports layers with a generic “geometry” type, with the QGIS release 3.20 it is now possible to load them and specify the requested geometry type on load, just like with PostGIS.
This feature was developed by Marco Bernasocchi (OPENGIS.ch)
PostGIS users rejoice: offline editing got a bit smarter and can now handle string list and number list field types.
This feature was developed by Mathieu Pellerin
Extended control has been provided for whether the last entered field values should be reused when creating new features, as this functionality may now be controlled independently for each individual attribute field for each layer.
Historically this functionality was configured using a global option that causes ALL field values for ALL layers to be remembered and reused during a QGIS session when creating new features.
This allows for finer control over form behavior, where some values may be desirable to reuse but others should be cleared or set to a default value based on an expression.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
New view widget to display JSON data in a user friendly way. Data can be displayed as syntax highlighted text or as a tree.
This feature was funded by Canton of Solothurn
This feature was developed by Damiano Lombardi
QGIS now supports adding legend entries for layer labels, which will display the font style and labeling classes for vector features.
This provides a legend entry that allows users to explicitly identify features by label style, even when no feature symbology is used.
Control of this behavior is made accessible by adding a “show label legend” option to the legend tab of the vector layer properties.
This feature was funded by Canton of Glarus
This feature was developed by mhugent
This additional option enriches the Package Layers algorithm and will copy the source layer metadata into the geopackage, so that it will be used as the default metadata for the layer.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
This algorithm retrieves basic raster layer properties such as the size in pixels, pixel dimensions (map units per pixel), number of bands, and no data value.
It is intended for use as a means of extracting these useful properties to use as the input values to other algorithms in a model, such as passing an existing raster’s pixel sizes over to a GDAL raster algorithm.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
The rasterize (vector to raster) GDAL process now supports 3D data, in that it now includes the possibility to use the Z value (elevation) of a feature to extract burn values.
The use of this option indicates that a burn value should be extracted from the “Z” values of the feature. Works with points and lines (linear interpolation along each segment). For polygons, it only works properly if the features are flat (i.e. contain the same Z value for all vertices)
This feature was developed by talledodiego
The Package Layers Algorithm was modified to support saving only selected features
This feature was developed by Stefan Conrads
A new log level property has been added to QgsProcessingContext
This allows algorithms to tune their output based on the logging level.
The qgis_process command line operation has been granted a –verbose switch to enable verbose log output.
This feature was funded by Natural resources Canada Contract: 3000720411
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
This development cycle saw a rework of the inner workings of QGIS’ geometry snapper algorithm, which has led to a significant speed boost. Datasets which could take over 10 minutes to process now take less than 10 seconds.
This feature was funded by SwissTierras Colombia
This feature was developed by Mathieu Pellerin
The aggregate processing tool now includes a last_value
aggregation function, which is especially useful when working with input data that has meaningful ordering.
This feature was developed by Mathieu Pellerin
Allows users to manually opt-out of monitoring directories in the browser by default, and also provides a mechanism for enterprise installs to disable this potentially unwanted behavior.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
QGIS now provides export and import functions to the QGIS authentication manager. This functionality has not yet been exposed through the User Interface. Complex authentication configurations with numerous, such as OAuth2, can optionally be encrypted or stored in plain text to enhance authentication management workflows.
This feature was developed by Mathieu Pellerin
QGIS now allows users to set a custom icon color for different folders in the browser. This effectively allows users to “tag” folders, which aids in the rapid navigation of complex folder structures in the browser.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
The non-functional and redundant “OWS” Group has been removed from the QGIS Browser panel.
This feature was developed by Loïc Bartoletti
Additional list field types have been added to the OGR driver for supported data types, such as Geojson.
This feature was developed by Nyall Dawson
Whilst the ability for QGIS to access a layer’s metadata information, such as reading the extent of a layer from the metadata, was previously restricted to vector layers, this functionality has now been extended to include various other layer types including raster, point cloud, and others.
This feature was funded by Ifremer
This feature was developed by rldhont
Opacity control support for external/ remote layers served by QGIS Server
This feature was developed by mhugent
Additional options have been added to QGIS Server to improve the results of the GetCapabilities response, especially without the need to complete various fields within the QGIS Project configuration. These updates also enable many options to be set by an environment variable, or by providing headers from a proxy.
The following options have been added and will be resolved by the server in the following order:
Value defined in the project per service.
The <service>_SERVICE_URL
environment variable.
The SERVICE_URL
environment variable.
The custom X-Qgis-<service>-Service-Url
header.
The custom X-Qgis-Service-Url
header.
Build from the standard Forwarded
header.
Build from the pseudo standard X-Forwarded-Host
and X-Forwarded-Proto
headers.
Build from the standard Host
header and the server protocol.
Build from the server name and the server protocol.
