The 3.11.0 release is a new feature release with the following highlights:

In a nutshell...

• RFC 104: Adding a "gdal" front-end command line interface.
  • See the list of commands
  • Includes new "gdal raster calc" and "gdal raster resclassify" utilities.
  • "gdal raster tile", C++ port of gdal2tiles, runs faster (3x to 6x in some cases)
  • Includes "gdal vsi list/copy/delete/move/sync" (ports of Python sample scripts)
  • Includes "gdal driver {driver_name}" for driver-specific commands.
  • Includes smart Bash autocompletion
  • Includes C, C++, Python API
• Add GDALG (GDAL Streamed Algorithm Format) driver: reading of on-the-fly / streamed vector dataset replaying compatible "gdal" command lines (kind of VRT).

Other topics

• RFC 100: Support float16 type
• RFC 102: Embedding resource files into libgdal
• RFC 103: Add a OGR_SCHEMA open option to selected OGR drivers
• RFC 105: Add and use safe path manipulation functions
• RFC 106: Metadata items to reflect driver update capabilities
• RFC 107: Add OGRLayer::IGetExtent() and OGRLayer::ISetSpatialFilter()
• Add read-only OGR ADBC (Arrow Database Connectivity) driver, in particular
  with support for DuckDB or Parquet datasets (if libduckdb also installed)
• Add LIBERTIFF driver: native thread-safe read-only GeoTIFF reader
• Add read-only RCM (Radarsat Constellation Mission) raster driver
• Add read-only AIVector (Artificial intelligence powered vector) driver
• VRT Pixel Functions: Add function to evaluate arbitrary expression (#11209)
• Substantially improved drivers: ZARR, with support for Kerchunk JSON and Parquet reference stores
• GeoPackage: change default version to GeoPackage 1.4 on creation (#7870)
• RFC 108:
  • Removed raster drivers: BLX, BT, CTable2, ELAS, FIT, GSAG (Golden Software ASCII grid), GSBG (Golden Software 6.0 binary grid), JP2Lura, OZI OZF2/OZFX3, Rasterlite (v1), R object data store (.rda), RDB, SDTS, SGI, XPM, DIPex
  • Removed vector drivers: Geoconcept Export, OGDI (VPF/VMAP support), SDTS, SVG, Tiger, UK. NTF
  • Removed write support in following drivers: Interlis 1, Interlis 2, ADRG, PAux, MFF, MFF2/HKV, LAN, NTv2, BYN, USGSDEM, ISIS2
• Removed OpenCL warper
• OGR "Memory" driver deprecated, and aliased to the "MEM" driver. Its functionality is merged into the "MEM" driver that has raster, vector
  and multidimensional support.
• Various code linting, static code analyzer fixes, etc.
• Bump of shared lib major version

New optional dependencies

• muparser is strongly recommended to be added as a build and runtime dependency, to provide nominal support for C++ VRT expressions.
• exprtk may be added as a build dependency (this is a header-only library) to provide support for advanced C++ VRT expressions. Note that it causes an increase in libgdal size of about 8 MB. exprtk support is recommended to be an addition to muparser support, not as a replacement.
