1.1.1 (2026-10-02)
Passes the plugins.qgis.org security scan.
- Bandit flagged two try/except/pass blocks and an unguarded urllib
call,
which blocks a plugin from approval. All three are now fixed rather
than
silenced: the swallowed exceptions are logged, and the crawler refuses
any
URL that is not http or https, so a tampered catalog cannot make it
read
local files through file:// -- which is the actual risk B310
describes.
- Bandit's rules now run locally as part of lint and in the pre-upload
check,
so a blocking finding fails here instead of at the upload form.

1.1.0 (2026-10-01)
Verified on Qt 5 and Qt 6, and an important area-of-interest fix.
- Runs unchanged on QGIS 3.22, 3.40, 3.44 LTR and 4.2, across PyQt
5.15.6 to
6.11.0 and Python 3.10 to 3.12. Every Qt import goes through qgis.PyQt
and
every enum uses the scoped spelling, which is all Qt6 requires; a test
enforces both so it cannot regress.
- Fixed: "Use selection" only looked at the active layer, so selecting
features on one layer while another was highlighted left the area of
interest unset and extracted the dataset's whole footprint. The
selection is
now taken from any layer that has one, each reprojected with its own
CRS.
- Extracting with no area now warns what would actually be downloaded,
naming
the dataset; for tables it says this means every feature and that
Earth
Engine truncates at 5,000 without warning.
- A missing Earth Engine session is explained with the sign-in steps
instead
of raising a traceback, including the fact that authenticating clears
the
Cloud project the Earth Engine plugin stores in the same file.
- Live status panel: position, records, throughput, time remaining,
Cancel.

1.0.2 (2026-10-01)
Live progress feedback for heavy downloads.
- A status panel under the results list reports position, records
fetched,
throughput and remaining time, and a Cancel button to stop the job.
- The remaining-time estimate is measured as the job runs, so it
corrects
itself instead of repeating a figure guessed before it started.
- Rate limiting is shown as "rate limited, backing off" rather than a
bar
that appears to stall, and splitting an oversized tile is reported.
- A single opaque request gets a busy bar with a ticking elapsed time,
so a
heavy feature collection looks alive rather than hung.
- Redraws are throttled to five a second, so a 500 tile job does not
repaint
the dock faster than it fetches.
- No new dependencies: plain Qt widgets.

1.0.1 (2026-10-01)
Auto-scaling for large areas.
- Areas too large for one Earth Engine call are tiled into H3
hexagons. The
tiling is chosen arithmetically from the request limit, so planning is
instant and costs no quota; the dialog shows the tile count, size and
estimated time before anything is sent.
- Optional parallel fetching, capped at half the machine's CPUs, with
a live
speed-up estimate per worker count. Sequential remains the default and
cannot be rate limited.
- HTTP 429 and quota errors are absorbed with exponential backoff and
jitter,
and concurrency narrows itself while the server is pushing back, so a
job
slows down instead of failing.
- Tiles Earth Engine still refuses are subdivided one resolution finer
and
retried, up to three times.
- Every extracted row carries its h3_index and tile_resolution, so
output can
be joined against anything else keyed by H3.
- h3 is optional: without it, tiling falls back to an equivalent
latitude/longitude grid and says so.
- Collection presets, led by Sentinel-5P / TROPOMI.

1.0.0 (2026-10-01)
Rewritten for modern QGIS.
- Covers the entire Earth Engine Data Catalog (1,155 datasets) instead
of a
92-dataset subset, sourced from Google's published STAC catalog rather
than
by scraping HTML. No BeautifulSoup dependency.
- Runs on Qt 6 as well as Qt 5, so it works on QGIS 4.x builds.
- Catalog refresh, dataset reads and extractions run as background
tasks:
QGIS no longer freezes, and they can be cancelled.
- Request size is estimated before sending, with a suggested
resolution when
a request would exceed the Earth Engine limit.
- Dock is fully layout-managed and resizable; results are a sortable,
searchable table.
- Areas of interest are reprojected to WGS84, so selections on
projected
layers no longer land in the wrong place.
- Fixed: CSV columns misaligned for rows with differing fields; pixel
footprint polygons about a third too small; hex colour palettes never
recognised.
- Full unit test suite and CI.
