Announcements:
- The layer ch.bazl.luftfahrthindernis and also the corresponding download product asset luftfahrthindernis_4326.kmz will contain a significantly increased number of objects by the end of January 2026, because the high-voltage transmission lines will be represented as individual poles between the line segments as a refinement of this geodata product. In addition, by the same date the currently available geodata assets luftfahrthindernis_4326.csv.zip, luftfahrthindernis_simplified_4326.csv.zip and luftfahrthindernis_simplified_4326.kmz will not be offered anymore on service STAC and will be replaced by a new Aeronautical Information Exchange Model (AIXM) formatted asset besides the existing luftfahrthindernis_4326.kmz
- The object ID values of the layer ch.vbs.schiessanzeigen will change for all objects due to geometrical changes in the source data with one of the next releases. Existing permalinks to objects may not work anymore and will have to be replaced by the new object IDs (chsdi fields featureId and id). In addition there will be a new attribute bezeichnung_ort on the dataset. The other existing attributes will stay.
