Dear PSC members,

Here is a proposal to allow editors to compute bounding boxes based on
keywords analysis [1].

Looking forward to your votes, Regards.

I just want to give this proposal a big thumbs up, even though I'm not a psc member.

I'm not a PCS member however, I do support such a system. We in Australia use bounding boxes in the Australian Geographic Extent Names (GEN) catalogue file. If you want some data to test your code on, have a look at URL:

http://asdd.ga.gov.au/asdd/profileinfo/anzlic-allgens.xml

There are about 10 categories (CodelistItem) with hundreds, if not thousands, of GENs (gml:description@anonymised.com:id) to choose from. This may help in testing the speed of your interface.

The order of the "|" separated bounding coordinates (gml:description) are north|south|east|west.

This CT_CodelistCatalogue file was developed by Simon Cox and CSIRO associates.

I hope this helps.

John

Hi Francois,

Good proposal.

I was interested in the way each bounding box is described. Is it through
an EX_GeographicDescription element?.

Could you send an example XML snippet.

Thanks and Regards,

Andrew

Hello Andrew,

Hi Francois,

Good proposal.

I was interested in the way each bounding box is described. Is it through
an EX_GeographicDescription element?.

Keyword label is added to gmd:description for the time being as we
don't really have geographic identifier at least in the region
thesaurus provided by default with GeoNetwork.
You could probably adapt the process easily to add an
EX_GeographicDescription/geographicIdentifier.

Cheers.
Francois

thesaurus provided by default with GeoNetwork.

Yes, thats similar to what I had to do as I didn't have a recognised thesaurus
for the regions on the charts I was describing. So I used 'id' attribute of gmd:EX_GeographicBoundingBox like this to identify each box:

<gmd:geographicElement>
<gmd:EX_GeographicBoundingBox id="Australia_North_Coast_-_Queensland_-_Approaches_to_Weipa_0">
<gmd:westBoundLongitude>
<gco:Decimal>141.45112558</gco:Decimal>
</gmd:westBoundLongitude>
<gmd:eastBoundLongitude>
<gco:Decimal>141.9022105</gco:Decimal>
</gmd:eastBoundLongitude>
<gmd:southBoundLatitude>
<gco:Decimal>-12.86724397</gco:Decimal>
</gmd:southBoundLatitude>
<gmd:northBoundLatitude>
<gco:Decimal>-12.41513333</gco:Decimal>
</gmd:northBoundLatitude>
</gmd:EX_GeographicBoundingBox>
</gmd:geographicElement>
<gmd:geographicElement>

You could probably adapt the process easily to add an
EX_GeographicDescription/geographicIdentifier.

+1 - also a nice function!
