Release Notes
September 24th, 2024 (v1.8.0)
Module tiler
New
Add
tile_resolutionto all tileset creation options. This new setting allows controlling the size of the tiles when rendered in a map. Higher values produce larger tiles.
Module lds
Fix
Improved handling of FQNs in CREATE_ISOLINES and CREATE_ROUTES procedures..
July 2nd, 2024 (v1.7.1)
Module import
Fix
Import functions in AT Gateway now raise an exception when there is an error. This replaces the previous status message.
May 22nd, 2024 (v1.7.0)
Module http_request
New
We have a new module named “http_request”. It allows making requests to external endpoints through the function
HTTP_REQUEST.
Module import
New
We have a new module named “import”. It allows importing tables for a given URL containing a file in any of the formats supported by the CARTO Import API. The procedure in charge of this import is
IMPORT_URL.
April 18th, 2024 (v1.6.1)
Module clustering
Fix
Update
ST_CLUSTERKMEANSin order to avoid generating less clusters than requested. The maximum number of clusters now will be equal to the number of different points passed.
Module lds
Fix
GEOCODE_TABLEnot working properly for “geom_column” parameters value different from “geom”.
March 21st, 2024 (v1.6.0)
Module lds
New
All external functions (including those used by the procedures in the lds module) now use a single, unified endpoint. This also simplifies the manual installation of the Analytics Toolbox.
GEOCODE_TABLE now uses async batch geocoding with TomTom, boosting the geocoding speed considerably. Also matching by rows is applied ensuring that the address that reaches the TomTom endpoints is as similar as possible as the table value.
February 16th, 2024 (v1.5.1)
Module lds
Fix
CREATE_ISOLINES fixed a problem with using input credentials for all requests.
Fixed support for waypoints in CREATE_ROUTES.
January 18th, 2024 (v1.5.0)
Module quadbin
New
New QUADBIN_DISTANCE function that returns the distance (number of cells) between two quadbin cells.
Fix
Improved precision when calculating cell indexes from latitudes close to the poles (±90º).
Module constructors
Fix
Fixed a problem with the output of ST_BEZIERSPLINE and ST_MAKEELLIPSE functions, they now return a GEOMETRY type column instead of a VARCHAR.
Fixed a problem with the output of ST_MAKEENVELOPE function, it now returns a GEOMETRY with SRID 4326.
Module transformations
Fix
Fixed a problem with the output of ST_CENTERMEAN, ST_CENTERMEDIAN, ST_CENTROID, ST_DESTINATION and ST_GREATCIRCLE functions, they now return a GEOMETRY with SRID 4326.
Module tiler
Fix
Fixed a problem with CREATE_SIMPLE_TILESET procedure, that was crashing when the value for the “max_tile_size_strategy” property was "drop_fraction_as_needed" in points tables.
Improved tile precision when creating tilesets from geometries containing points with latitudes close to the poles (±90º) using CREATE_SIMPLE_TILESET or CREATE_POINT_AGGREGATION_TILESET.
Improved bounds calculation to get an approximate value when using h3 cells in the CREATE_SPATIAL_INDEX_TILESET procedure.
Module data
Fix
Fixed an issue when using AVG aggregation, that was not correctly computed when “data_query” contained NULL values.
Module lds
Fix
GEOCODE_TABLE malfunctioning for multi-line addresses with multiple rows with scape line and indentations.
December 23, 2023 (v1.4.1)
Module lds
Fix

Fix
Tiler support for non-integer numeric properties. We have corrected a problem that was causing problems when using numeric properties with decimal values.
November 13, 2023 (v1.4.0)
Module lds
New
Add SETUP procedure. This procedure allows configuring credentials and endpoints of an Analytics Toolbox installation. Find more information about this topic in this documentation.
Replace LDS_QUOTA_INFO by GET_LDS_QUOTA_INFO function. This new function allows checking your currently consumed quota with a single query, without the need to store the result as a table.
October 13, 2023 (v1.3.1)

Module lds
Fix

July 14, 2023 (v1.2.0)
Module lds
New
We are now allowing users to send any of the parameter options supported by the isolines service provider in CREATE_ISOLINES.
We have improved our logging of results in GEOCODE_TABLE so more information about processed and geocoded rows is provided to the user. Also the new option “carto_force_geocode” allows the re-geocoding of already geocoded rows.
Fix
We have applied some fixes to the CREATE_ROUTES function so the metadata column can be successfully created and informed.
Module quadbin
Change
We have updated the formula used in QUADBIN_FROMLONGLAT so it gets standardized. In addition a new implementation of QUADBIN_TOCHILDREN has been added in order to increase performance.
\
June 6, 2023 (v1.1.0)
Module lds
New
We have created a new procedure named CREATE_ROUTES, which calculates the routes (returned as linestrings) between a set of given origins and destinations (points) in a query. It supports different transport modes and advanced options as the other functions of the lds module.
April 4, 2023 (v1.0.2)
Module lds
Change
We have updated the LDS module to be aligned with the new usage quota model, working as an annual budget and combining consumption across all supported LDS services.

December 22, 2022
Module lds
Improvement
We have added the possibility to configure more options as parameters when executing the functions to CREATE_ISOLINES. These new options, which depend on the LDS service provider, allow the user to configure more transportation modes such as truck or bike, the possibility of specifying departure or arrival times allowing the creation of reverse isolines, and other options like different routing modes.
Added new confidence/relevance metadata to the results of the geocoding function GEOCODE_TABLE.
Module quadbin
New
Quadbin/quadkey conversion functions have been added to ease the conversion from quadbin to quadkey and from quadkey to quadbin indexes.
