[GeoNetwork-users] Possiblity to query geonetwork and extract wms links

GeoNetwork GeoNetwork User

Hi There,

  I would like to know how I would be able to interface geonetwork with other client tools. Here is the following scenario :
   - I would like to use geonetwork to store metadata + wms /wfs online resource links to a wms/wfs serveres
   - I would like then to be able to use geonetwork server (oustside the portal interface) to do simple queries (something like http://127.0.0.1:8080/geonetwork/srv/en/main.search.embedded?any=africa&northBL=90&eastBL=180&southBL=-90&westBL=-180&relation=overlaps&attrset=geo)
   - I would like then to be able to present the results to the user (specifically the wms links to the get map) and possibility let him load the layer in this client tool

  Is this something that can be easily done ? Do you see any potential problems ? Or simply that this approach does not make sense.

Thanks

Hi,

I would like to suggest you to use the XML search provided by Geonetwork.
You will be able to parse your xml response and then present your results, especially the wms links to get a map.

Here is an exemple :
- first you do an xml search :
http://localhost:8080/geonetwork/srv/en/xml.search?any=africa
- then you parse your xml result, and loop over each id
- then you proceed to a specific xml metadata search by id, for each id :
http://localhost:8080/geonetwork/srv/en/xml.metadata.get?id=n

Here is my approach, not sure it is the best one but it could be a way to achieve what you want to do.
HTH,

Mathieu

Hi!
Yes, that works, and in the latest SVN code there's also the option to filter for just WMS/WFS services
Ciao,
