Hi,

On behalf of the GDAL/OGR development team and community, I am pleased to
announce the release of GDAL/OGR 3.13.0 “Iowa City”.

GDAL/OGR is a C++ geospatial data access library for raster and vector file
formats, databases and web services. It includes bindings for several
languages, and a variety of command line tools.
