## v15.6.6.125

*Released: 18 June 2026*

**What's New:**

* New object type: **(KA6) Bodenkundlicher Aufschluss**. GeoDin 15.6 introduces the KA6 object type, supporting the 6th edition of the German Soil Survey Guidelines (Bodenkundliche Kartieranleitung), mandatory in Germany since July 2024. It covers diagnostic horizons, revised horizon symbols, the extended substrate system, and new soil types. See [(KA6) Bodenkundlicher Aufschluss](/object-types/ka6-bodenkundlicher-aufschluss.md); a detailed article is available in the Help Center: [Bodenkundlicher Aufschluss nach KA6 (Deutsch)](https://support.geodin.com/hc/de/articles/28347769127196-Bodenkundlicher-Aufschluss-nach-KA6).

**Improvements:**

* Updated wording on the license activation screen to reduce confusion when entering Pro license keys.
* Data entry form background colors now adapt to the active UI skin for visual consistency.
* Measurement point display names are now updated during an object type update; previously a full reinstallation was required. (Reported by Arcadis.)
* Fixed layout rendering issues on 4K screens with the German UI.
* Fixed a crash during Excel export of complex data types (e.g. PSD) that contained no rows. (Reported internally by Fugro.)
* The "Break presentation for unmeasured areas" option in data sequence graphics now correctly interrupts the curve when depth entries have no associated measured value; break-range precision increased to 0.001.
* Minor German text and symbol corrections, including a missing ® symbol in the unsupported object type message.

## v15.5.0.185

*Released: 13 April 2026*

**What's New:**

**Improvements:**

* Fixed the Turkish interface language showing numeric placeholders instead of translated text.
* Excel export of data types with sub-data types (e.g. SPT) now creates valid files that open correctly; simple data types were not affected. See [Excel Export](/exporting-data/excel.md).

* Formulas for system data types are refreshed during object type updates to match the source configuration and order.
* Fixed a "Division by 0" error when importing sample data after switching between US customary and SI units.
