A landmark week for collaboration and data management — interfaces now have fine-grained permission controls, Google My Maps can be imported and synced directly into Atlas, and the map now zooms correctly regardless of which panels are open.
Features
Interface permissions
Interfaces now have a full permission model. You can invite specific users or teams as viewers or editors on individual interfaces, set an interface to public or private, and bypass password protection automatically for authenticated users who already have access. Viewers removed from a workspace lose interface access immediately, and invitations now trigger notification emails. This replaces the previous all-or-nothing project-level sharing model.
Google My Maps connection
A new connection type lets you import any publicly shared Google My Map directly into Atlas. Each folder in the map becomes its own dataset, complete with icons from the original map, and Atlas syncs the connection daily so your data stays up to date. Set it up in one click from the Connections panel.
Dataset deletion warnings
Deleting a dataset that is linked to a form now shows a clear warning listing which forms will be affected, with a confirmation step before anything is removed. The same warning appears for datasets with relations or datasets shared across multiple projects, so you always know the full impact before proceeding.
Smarter map zooming
When Atlas zooms to a feature, a search result, or a workflow output, it now correctly accounts for whatever sidepanels, navigation panels, and interface sections are open. Features no longer zoom behind panels, and switching between interfaces no longer causes the map to drift.
Fixes and Improvements
- Form toggle colors — single-select and multi-select fields using the Toggle layout now correctly display option color pills
- Basemap persistence — changes to the basemap are now saved and persist correctly across sessions
- Feature input reliability — spatial analysis inputs (e.g. buffer, overlay) now activate on the first click and no longer require multiple attempts
- Drag-and-drop performance — significantly reduced CPU usage during layer drag-and-drop and map hover interactions
- Workflow map layers — switching between workflow nodes no longer leaves the previous node's layer visible on the map
- Popup editor — the popup editor no longer closes unexpectedly when clicking dropdowns inside it
- Active filters — "Clear all" is hidden when only view-level filters are active, preventing confusion about which filters can be cleared
- Multi-select column values — values in multi-select columns are no longer incorrectly converted to plain text strings
- Overlay and Voronoi with mixed geometries — Union, Subtract, and Difference operations now accept datasets that mix Polygon and MultiPolygon (or Point and MultiPoint) geometry types
- People column casing — names in People-type columns now preserve their original capitalization
- Dataset overwrite duplicates — overwriting a dataset no longer occasionally produces duplicate rows
- BigQuery column types — FLOAT and BOOLEAN column types from BigQuery are now correctly preserved when importing data
- WCS connections — WCS data connections no longer fail due to authentication errors
- Public project routing — public and shared projects now open at the correct URL
- H3 geocoding — the H3 column is now highlighted in the CSV geocoding preview when detected
- Filter widget performance — filter widgets with large option lists are now capped at 100 options to prevent the UI from freezing
- Widget drag — dragging widgets into island sections in interfaces no longer causes visual glitches
- Team interface invitations — inviting a team to an interface no longer incorrectly adds individual members to the team itself
