[Kader Irchad Barry <kaderirchadb@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Lars,

Congratulations for this new release and all the improvements that were
made by the development team. Being in search of a way to handle clusters,
I'll be happy to test this feature. Do you know if it is planned to extend
this feature to spatial and temporal analysis applied to thematic layers ?
(I'm thinking about something like the Kulldorf statistics applied to
detect clusters of high or low risk disease incidence and being used by the
SaTScan software).

Kind regards,
Kader

> Event clustering in GIS: You can now view clusters of events in the event
> layer of the GIS app. This dramatically improves the scalability and lets
> you visualize millions of events in a single map. Try zooming in and see
> the clusters being updated. The event layer clusters are based on the
> longitude/latitude of the events which allows for geospatial analysis of
> disease outbreaks, surveys and more. Filters can be defined per data
> element, e.g. you can filter age groups and gender in a similar style as
> you do in event reports. After drilling down to individual events you can
> click on points to show a dialog with additional information about the
> event. You can select start and end dates or relative periods for the time
> dimension. The color and size of the clusters / points can be controlled
> under options.

> GIS OSM Light basemap: The GIS app features a new OpenStreetMap Light
> basemap which is great for thematic mapping, as it emphasizes the data

> Usage analytics: A new app called Usage Analytics is available and lets

> people have created and how many people are logging in versus total number
> of users. The system will capture and store daily snapshots of usage
> statistics automatically which can be visualized through this app.

> Data table: A new app for easily viewing aggregated data tables is now

> Organisation unit maintenance UI: A new maintenance app is available
> which includes organisation units, data elements and indicators. The
> organisation units maintenance user interface has been upgraded to the new
> material design style. The maintenance app supersedes the data elements and
> indicators app. Note that you now need to use the Maintenance app instead

> User setting fallback to system setting: User settings now fall back to
> equivalent system settings if not  set. You can define system settings for
> all user settings, meaning you can define system wide default settings. As
> an example, you can enable system email notifications system-wide, and then
> allow individual users to disable it for their own account.

> YouTube video app: A new dashboard app for YouTube videos is available in

> videos and more to users. First search for “Social media video” and add the
> video widget, second enter the URL of your desired YouTube video. You can
> get the app from the DHIS 2 app store under Web Widgets. Have a look at

> User based data store: In addition to the existing general-purpose data
> store, a new key-value JSON data store has been introduced. Unlike the
> general-purpose data store which is shared between all users, the new
> user-based data store is linked to the currently logged in user. Only the
> user linked to the data store can add, edit, update or delete data in their
> store. This is useful for apps which need to store personalized data for a
> user, for example user-defined settings.

> value of the system setting by default if the user setting has not been
