Hello,
I am new to Geonetwork and am very impressed by what I've seen so far. My project involves creation of a metadata catalogue for British Antarctic Survey's holdings of remote sensing images and aerial photography. Geonetwork looks very suited to this purpose. Our main requirement is that our metadata should conform to ISO 19115. Looking at the range of XML metadata files we have associated with our satellite imagery, I am successfully able to import the ones in ESRI proprietary formats using one of the existing XSLT stylesheets under Administration->Metadata insert. The ones giving me trouble at the moment are ones already in FGDC format, which import effortlessly but result in something not ISO 19115 compliant. As far as I can see, none of the standard XSLT stylesheets bundled with Geonetwork "out of the box" address the transformation FGDC -> ISO 19115. Scouting around, I found a set of transformations at:
http://www.ncddc.noaa.gov/metadataresource/metadataandxml
(under link "FGDC CSDGM to ISO Transforms").
I plugged this into Geonetwork (file FGDCtoISO19115.xsl) and am able to select it from the admin interface and attempt to apply it to a sample metadata XML file. Unfortunately I get several errors which I am not sure where to look to track down where they're happening. BTW it would be good if some kind of error message came up within the web page when an import goes wrong. At the moment (for me at least) nothing happens, and I have to look in the Jetty log.
Here is the output from the log, showing (I think) that the XSLT file is there and an attempt was made to apply it to the input metadata file. I did have to fix a couple of typos in the file I downloaded from NOAA concerning the n: namespace - there are a couple of entries which someone forgot to change to gml: I think. However there are still a few XPATH errors on lines like:
<gco:Integer>
<xsl:sequence select="xs:string(xs:integer(xs:positiveInteger(.)))"/>
</gco:Integer>
With several nesting levels. Are they happening because of errors in the XSLT, or is the XSLT code ok and Geonetwork is using a processor that doesn't support some of the constructs in the stylesheet? I only have limited experience of XSLT so I'm unsure at this point.
I hope someone is able to help with this. I've attached the metadata file I'm using (22.5k) hope that's ok.
Thanks in advance,
David Herbert
