Hi list,

I setup my catalog with GeoNetwork, and each record include the temporal range. I am wondering can I get the GetRecords response in chronological order? Let’s say, put the latest records at first? If not, can I use to get the response in chronological order?

Thanks!

You should be able to do this. take a look at the index-fields.xsl for one to see how your field is indexed. I think there are some other options you can use as well. I think you can look in the loc/eng/xml/strings.xml and look at the sortby elements for the different values you can sortby

BTW, to use GetRecords request to get the chronological response, I found GeoNetwork supports ogs:SortBy parameter very well. By adding the following elements in the GetRecords request:
