[GeoNetwork-devel] proposal Improved WMC support in geonetwork

Hi list, i’d like to propose for voting this improvement proposal, to be released in the 2.9/3.0 release:

http://trac.osgeo.org/geonetwork/wiki/proposals/OpenWMCfromCatalogue

The user will get the possibility to add a iso19139 record describing a map-context. The map context document (for example generated by geonetwork map viewer) can be attached to the record as an onlineresource (upload). When a WMC-iso19139 record is discovered in the catalogue a button will be displayed to open the attached WMC in the geonetwork map viewer.

Upload WMC

Currently a WMC can only be set by entering a url, it would be nice if people can upload it as a file

In case of WMC-attachement show an Open Map button

If protocol is OGC:WMC, then show a link to open the WMC document

Extend the WMCManager.js

The WMCManager gets an additional method to load a WMC file from a url

Any comments, let me know…

+1. It is a useful bit of functionality that I am sure I can make sure of in other projects like Georchestra for example.

I would like to see a diff or pull request. The zip you attached seemed to be the fully modified files and I don’t have time to try to pull the patch out of that.

+1 for me Paul.

With regard to WMC support, it could be also nice to extend that in order to:

  • from the mapviewer directly create an ISO19139 record from the current map as WMC (using the XSL transformation OGCWMC-to-ISO19139.xsl available): in one click the metadata is created and the WMC saved and attached to the metadata … and even maybe a thumbnail automatically created
  • be able to configure the mapviewer based on WMC (instead of XML or JS like now). From the administration, user could choose the WMC to use (default, OSM, …)

That could make easier the creation of catalog of maps.

I also like your remark about “enable users to comment” and that could be relevant for all metadata records with a public and a private discussion.

Cheers.
