Path Profile 0.1.1

Patch release fixing Windows packaged raster startup.

• Includes the full runtime dependency closure for the packaged gdal-async worker.
• Adds release-time smoke checks so missing GDAL/worker dependencies fail the build.
• Bumps the desktop app version to 0.1.1.

Validation:

• bun run check
• bun run test:unit
• bun run dist:win
• Packaged runtime require('gdal-async')
• Packaged raster worker startup

Path Profile v0.1.0

First release of Path Profile, an Electron desktop app for loading DEM GeoTIFF rasters, drawing a path over the DEM, and generating an elevation profile along that path.

Install

Download Path-Profile-Setup-0.1.0-win-x64.exe below and run it. The installer lets you choose the install location and creates Start menu and desktop shortcuts.

The installer is not code-signed, so Windows SmartScreen will warn on first run — click "More info" then "Run anyway" to proceed.

Highlights

• DEM GeoTIFF rendering with adjustable color controls
• Path drawing tool over the DEM
• Sampled elevation profile chart and table with hover-linked map cursor
• CSV export of profile samples
• Optional, no-key public basemaps (OSM, Esri, Wikimedia) reprojected on the fly

Usage

1. Launch Path Profile from the Start menu.
2. File > Open DEM... — select one or more DEM GeoTIFF files.
3. Use the floating map controls to choose DEM styling and start the path tool.
4. View > Basemap — pick the background basemap (optional).
5. Draw a path over the DEM, then save it to generate the elevation profile.
6. File > Export Profile CSV to export sampled values.

Notes

• Windows x64 only in this release.
• Supported input is GeoTIFF DEM-like raster data.
• Public basemaps are for interactive viewing only; the app does not bulk-download or cache tiles for offline use.
