GeoNetwork support thesaurus in SKOS format [1], so you should convert
your thesaurus to this format first.

One thing not supported actually is to be able to load one SKOS
thesaurus based on many files (like GEMET for example) but updating the
RDF parser to the latest version should help.... more work required
here.

Thank's

Hi list,

ASFA Thesaurus is from FAO : http://www4.fao.org/asfa/asfa.htm

Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts (ASFA)
is an abstracting and indexing service covering the world’s literature on the science, technology, management, and conservation of marine, brackish water, and freshwater resources and environments, including their socio-economic and legal aspects.

I send an email to fao, but I still have no answer…

François-Xavier send me a way to translate the thesaurus in SKOS :

But, sorry, I can’t do it for the community.

Thank’s

Bruno
