Packaging changes:
Drop patch to visibility define code in port/cpl_conv, because gdal
builds on NetSBD 9 without it, it had a merge conflict, it is not
explained in a comment or commit message, and it hasn't been filed
upstream.
Upstream changes (see NEWS.md for more detail):
* [RFC 81](https://gdal.org/development/rfc/rfc81_coordinate_epoch.html):
Support for coordinate epochs in geospatial formats.
Implemented in FlatGeoBuf, GeoPackage, MEM, VRT
* New GDAL drivers:
- [Zarr](https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/zarr.html):
read/write support for ZarrV2 (and experimental V3), using 2D classic raster
API or multidimensional API:
- [STACIT](https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/stacit.html):
Spatio-Temporal Asset Catalog Items as virtual mosaics
* Other improvements:
- number of enhancements in file system operations of /vsigs/
- NITF: additions to comply with NITF Version 2.1 Commercial Dataset
Requirements Document (NCDRD)
- ODBC and PGeo: multiple fixes and improvements
- SAFE (Sentinel1): multiple improvements related to SLC/calibration (change
subdataset naming)
- multidimensional API: caching, and other improvements
* Code linting and security fixes
* Bump of shared lib major version
* Add support for PCRE2 (to replace deprecated PCRE) (#4822)
* MDB driver (Java based) mark as deprecated. Planned for removal for GDAL 3.5.
ODBC driver is the preferred solution (with up-to-date MDBTools library on
non-Windows platforms)
* Writing side of Tiger driver deprecated and will be removed in GDAL 3.5
* Remainder: DODS, JPEG2000(Jasper), JPEGLS, MG4LIDAR, FUJIBAS, IDA, INGR and
vector driver ARCGEN, ArcObjects, CLOUDANT, COUCHDB, DB2, DODS, FME, GEOMEDIA,
GTM, INGRES, MONGODB, REC, WALK are planned for removal in GDAL 3.5. As well
as Perl bindings
Uptream NEWS:

Those drivers are planned for removal in GDAL 3.5
- Perl bindings are deprecated. Removal planned for GDAL 3.5. Use Geo::GDAL::FFI instead
* Removal of BNA, AeronavFAA, HTF, OpenAir, SEGUKOOA, SEGY, SUA, XPlane, BPG, E00GRID, EPSILON, IGNFHeightASCIIGrid, NTV1 drivers. Moved to (unsupported) https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal-extra-drivers repository.
* Continued code linting (cppcheck, CoverityScan, etc.)
* Bump of shared lib major version
This is a long overdue update which skips the 3.1 major release.
py-gdal is also udpated.
Besides what is noted in upstream NEWS, gdalserver has been withdrawn.
See NEWS in the source tarball; this pkgsrc update corresponds to 1452
lines.

Install the new interchangeable BLAS system created by Thomas Orgis,
currently supporting Netlib BLAS/LAPACK, OpenBLAS, cblas, lapacke, and
Apple's Accelerate.framework. This system allows the user to select any
BLAS implementation without modifying packages or using package options, by
setting PKGSRC_BLAS_TYPES in mk.conf. See mk/blas.buildlink3.mk for details.
This commit should not alter behavior of existing packages as the system
defaults to Netlib BLAS/LAPACK, which until now has been the only supported
implementation.
Details:
Add new mk/blas.buildlink3.mk for inclusion in dependent packages
Install compatible Netlib math/blas and math/lapack packages
Update math/blas and math/lapack MAINTAINER approved by adam@
OpenBLAS, cblas, and lapacke will follow in separate commits
Update direct dependents to use mk/blas.buildlink3.mk
Perform recursive revbump

MIGRATION GUIDE FROM GDAL 2.4 to GDAL 3.0
-----------------------------------------
- Substantial changes, sometimes backward incompatible, in coordinate reference
system and coordinate transformations have been introduced per
https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/rfc73_proj6_wkt2_srsbarn
* OSRImportFromEPSG() takes into account official axis order.
Traditional GIS-friendly axis order can be restored with
OGRSpatialReference::SetAxisMappingStrategy(OAMS_TRADITIONAL_GIS_ORDER);
* Same for SetWellKnownGeogCS("WGS84") / SetFromUserInput("WGS84")
* removal of OPTGetProjectionMethods(), OPTGetParameterList() and OPTGetParameterInfo()
No equivalent.
* removal of OSRFixup() and OSRFixupOrdering(): no longer needed since objects
constructed are always valid
* removal of OSRStripCTParms(). Use OSRExportToWktEx() instead with the
FORMAT=SQSQL option
* exportToWkt() outputs AXIS nodes
* OSRIsSame(): now takes into account data axis to CRS axis mapping, unless
IGNORE_DATA_AXIS_TO_SRS_AXIS_MAPPING=YES is set as an option to OSRIsSameEx()
* ogr_srs_api.h: SRS_WKT_WGS84 macro is no longer declared by default since
WKT without AXIS is too ambiguous. Preferred remediation: use SRS_WKT_WGS84_LAT_LONG.
Or #define USE_DEPRECATED_SRS_WKT_WGS84 before including ogr_srs_api.h
== GDAL/OGR 3.0.0 - General Changes ==
* PROJ >= 6.0 is a required external dependency
* libgeotiff >= 1.5 should be used for builds with external libgeotiff
(Also update py-gdal as it shares the distfile.)
Note that the upgrade to 3.0.x is pending evaluation of impact on
depending packages.
Upstream changes: basically bugfixes.

2.3.2: bug fixes and minor improvements
2.3.1: bug fixes and minor improvements
= GDAL/OGR 2.3.0 Release Notes =

* data/pds4_template.xml
* data/esri_epsg.wkt
== Backward compatibility issues ==
See MIGRATION_GUIDE.TXT
Note that changes are extensive; see NEWS in the distfile.
(This revbump should not be necessary, because goes's public ABI did
not change. Due to a misfeature/bug in libtool, linking against the
stable geos C API results in a directed NEEDED entry on the unstable
C++ library.)
