Changes since MapLibre GL JS v4.7.1:

✨ Features and improvements

• ⚠️ StyleLayer's queryIntersectsFeature method parameters were moved to QueryIntersectsFeatureParams. (#5276) Wrap the method parameters with {} to solve this
• ⚠️ Support setting WebGL context options on map creation (#5196). Previously supported WebGL context options like antialias, preserveDrawingBuffer and failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat must now be defined inside the canvasContextAttributes object on MapOptions.
• ⚠️ Change the return type of on method to return a Subscription to allow for easy unsubscribe (#5080). map.on('x').on('y') => map.on('x'); map.on('y');.
• ⚠️ Change drag rotate behavior to be around the center of the screen (#5074)
• ⚠️ Return actual altitude from queryTerrainElevation + Pass non-translated matrices to custom layer on mercator map (#3854)
• ⚠️ Changed geometry-type to identify "Multi-" features (#4877). Use $type for non "Multi-" support or use in expression to get the previous behavior.
• ⚠️ Remove unminified prod build (#4906). You'll need to use a different build.
• Allows setting the desired WebGL version to use (#5236). You can now use contextType inside canvasContextAttributes to choose which WebGL version to use
• Dual-Stack WebGL Runtime with WebGL2 to WebGL1 Fallback (#5198)
• Add support for projection type expression as part of a refactoring of the transfrom and projection classes (#5139)
• Export Event class (#5016)
• Support Vertical Perspective projection (#5023)
• When clustering circles and the promoteId is set to some parameter, the promoted ID is used on non-clustered features and the cluster_id is used on clustered features. Previously the ID was undefined for non-clustered features (#4899)
• Support Terrain in Globe projection (#4976)
• Improved performance of the coveringTiles (tile culling) function for globe (#4937)
• Catches network fetching errors such as CORS, DNS or malformed URL as actual AJAXError to expose HTTP request details to the "error" event (#4822)
• Add setVerticalFieldOfView() to public API (#4717)
• Disable sky when using globe and blend it in when changing to mercator (#4853)
• New GlobeControl (#4960)
• Add support for pitch > 90 degrees (#4717)
• Add support for camera roll angle (#4717)
• Improve performance of queryRenderedFeatures by using JavaScript Sets to assess layer membership internally (#4777)
• Support globe mode (#3963)
• Merge atmosphere and sky implementation (#3888)
• Add option to display a realistic atmosphere when using a Globe projection (#3888)
