Release Notes 2026

NET Cloud 26.11.4

Summary

This version expands NET Scan data processing, power project setup, and the Telekom integration. New features enable the use of protected map layers in external GIS applications and mandatory two-factor authentication. Bug fixes improve search, file uploads, and data transfer reliability.

🚀 New Features

  • Power project setup: A dedicated one-click maintenance action configures layers, relationships, and styles for the NET Scan power data model.

  • Nested material processing: NET Cloud imports hierarchical material structures from NET Scan, including nested ducts and their associated cables.

  • Survey polygon import: Survey polygons from NET Scan can be processed with their material type and area value. This requires corresponding capture support in the app.

  • Trench statistics: Depth, width, length, and volume metrics can be imported during scan upload and linked to the corresponding trench.

  • Three-phase documentation: The Telekom integration supports assigning scans to the stages before, during, and after construction. Scans without a specified phase continue to be assigned to the “during construction” phase.

  • Maps in external GIS applications: Access tokens for protected TMS layers can be copied from the layer manager. Additional instructions help users integrate these layers into applications such as QGIS.

  • Mandatory two-factor authentication: Administrators can require users to set up and use two-factor authentication.

🛠️ Improvements

  • NET Scan project setup: Project setup now includes survey polygons, trench statistics, excavation volume, and material grouping.

  • User selection: When filtering land parcels, users beyond the first ten previously displayed entries can now be found.

  • MBfD photo documentation: Imported photo points receive a requirement of one photo so that the required photo documentation is taken into account in NET Scan.

🐞 Bug Fixes

  • Telekom upload status: The result display distinguishes between successful, partially successful, and failed uploads. Failed scans no longer result in an unconditional success status.

  • SMA assignment: Contractor assignments are consistently checked during upload to prevent data from being transferred to another contractor’s SMA.

  • HK ducts: When SMA and SMA-HK are identical, HK ducts are uploaded together with the remaining data instead of being omitted.

  • Missing SMA-HK: A missing SMA-HK is clearly reported during upload when HK ducts are present.

  • SMA input: Leading and trailing spaces are removed to prevent misleading permission errors during upload.

  • Deleted scans: Deleting a scan also removes its transferred raw geometries from Digitale Baubegleitung, provided the required transfer information is available. Final data, scan files, and photos already uploaded remain there.

  • Telekom synchronization: Data that is already missing no longer causes cleanup to abort with a “404 Not Found” error.

  • MBfD photo assignment: Photos are assigned to the correct photo point based on their link. A warning is displayed when the distance exceeds 50 metres; if GPS data is missing, the photo point’s location is used.

  • Multiple MBfD photos: When several photos are linked to one photo point, the photo with the latest capture time is used for that point.

  • Photo upload status: The transfer status of MBfD photos is set consistently in metadata and tags.

  • File uploads: After an upload error, pending files remain assigned to the originally selected feature, even if another feature is selected in the meantime.

  • Search results: Page navigation and page-size selection work correctly in the separate search results window.

  • Adding ducts: The action for adding ducts is available immediately after drawing a trench. Reselecting the trench is no longer necessary.

  • Postal code filter: Input values are no longer automatically formatted as decimal numbers with thousands separators.

  • Relationship validation: Relation route validation correctly displays edit links and information about unavailable linked layers.

  • User impersonation: An error caused by an overly long email address when ending a user impersonation session has been fixed.

  • Audit log: System changes related to failed login attempts are clearly identified instead of displaying a numeric guest user ID.

  • Two-factor authentication: A new authenticator configuration is saved only after a valid verification code has been entered. If verification fails, the existing configuration is retained.

  • Ticket notifications: User input handling in notification emails has been secured against injected HTML content.

  • Document management: Cleanup of deleted documents continues even when a project has no document reference layer.

  • Will be deployed on 04.11.2026


NET Cloud 26.10.7

Summary

This release introduces a new dashboard for NET Scan data, improves plot placement and manual scan alignment, strengthens access protection for orthophotos, and resolves several issues in project administration, ticket management, scan processing, and the map.

🚀 New Features

  • Dashboard for NET Scan data: A new integrated dashboard provides charts and tables for scan and segment data, including filtering by time period and project area. Dashboard views are available for both the current and previous NET Scan data models.

🛠️ Improvements

  • Easier manual alignment of orthophotos: When moving or rotating an orthophoto, it is displayed with 50% transparency so that reference points in the underlying image remain visible.

  • Full values in data grids: Long values that are truncated in data grids can now be accessed without losing the complete content.

  • Restricted map navigation: Map navigation has been limited to prevent project boundaries from being placed in invalid repeated world-map areas.

  • Orthophoto tiles: The custom tiles are now all served via our tile server.

  • Improved handling of special characters in filenames: Filenames containing non-ASCII characters or special symbols are now encoded correctly when files are uploaded.

🐞 Bug Fixes

  • Permission group notifications: The “There are no customers in this permission group” message is no longer displayed repeatedly when changing the number of displayed items.

  • Permission group pagination: Removing all users from the last page of a permission group now refreshes the list correctly instead of displaying an empty page with an incorrect warning.

  • Attribute permission highlighting: Read-only attributes are now highlighted consistently when parent permissions are changed.

  • Loading SLDs for new layers: Attempting to load an SLD from GeoServer while creating a new layer no longer causes the page to become unresponsive.

  • Saving an empty Production SLD: The confirmation message now correctly explains what happens when an empty Production SLD is saved.

  • Deleting Layer Attribute Groups: Layer Attribute Groups can now be deleted without causing a 500 Internal Server Error.

  • Clearer search action: The misleading “Cancel” button used to clear a search form has been renamed to better reflect its actual function.

  • Ticket search layout: Overlapping date fields on the Ticket Search page have been corrected.

  • Ticket list layout: Email addresses no longer overlap when sorting tickets by customer or assignee.

  • Splitting tickets: Validation when splitting tickets has been corrected. Invalid values now produce a clear message, and valid split operations can be completed reliably.

  • Avatar upload validation: File-size information shown during avatar uploads is now consistent between the validation message and the user interface.

  • 500 error page: The misleading suggestion to reload the page has been removed from the Internal Server Error page.

  • 360° photo preview: An issue preventing 360° photos from being displayed correctly in the preview has been resolved.

  • Tile generation after moving or reverting scans: Tile generation now waits for updated scan files to become available, reducing inconsistent results after moving, rotating, or reverting scans.

  • Reprocessing scans: Reprocessing a scan now starts a new processing instance with the required scan information, ensuring that the complete scan-processing workflow is executed.

  • Address search: The Nominatim geocoding integration has been updated for compatibility with the current JSON response format.

  • HK/VZK ducts: Correct separation and transmission of main cable (HK) and distribution cable (VZK) ducts.

  • MBFD photos and points: Transmission of photos and points in conjunction with NET Scan update 1.3.0.

  • Automatic force push: If a scan has been properly deleted on Telekom’s side, force_push is triggered automatically. The corresponding button may therefore be removed soon.

  • Notice when changing SMA: When uploading a scan to a different or new SMA, the log indicates whether the scan is already assigned to another SMA and includes the previous SMA number.

Uploaded

  • Will be deployed on October 2, 2026.

  • Automatic repair of missing file previews: DMS metadata is checked regularly and reprocessed when necessary, helping to automatically restore missing previews and incomplete metadata.

  • Documents and linked information: Deleting a document now correctly removes associated TC_NM_INFO records when they are no longer required, while preserving records that are still linked to other photos.

  • Safer map-style filenames: SLD filename validation has been improved to prevent problematic characters that could make projects or Azure Blob resources unavailable.

  • More reliable cross-workspace synchronization: Synchronization now accounts for Azure Blob indexing delays, preventing files from being sporadically missed when synchronizing between workspaces.

  • More reliable Azure Functions deployment: Function startup time is now taken into account before performing the post-deployment version check, preventing unnecessary deployment errors.

  • More robust WFS processing: Internal handling for deleting multiple features has been made more flexible, improving the technical robustness of WFS operations.

🐞 Bug Fixes

  • Translations on project import: Importing or copying a project no longer produces broken layer translations.

  • Multiple pipes of the same material: When several pipes with identical material are scanned in one trench, the upload now correctly creates one record per pipe instead of collapsing them into a single entry per material type.

  • Removing permission groups: Removing a user from a permission group no longer fails with "Permission Group not found".

  • Layer category checkbox: A collapsed category correctly reflects the partial-selection state after reload, instead of appearing fully checked.

Uploaded
