| | 26 | ---- |
| | 27 | |
| | 28 | == Motivations == |
| | 29 | !GeoNetwork is currently unable to import CSW ebRIM metadata. This format will be increasingly prominent |
| | 30 | in the GEOSS environment in the future and a significant amount of useful metadata will become available |
| | 31 | for harvesting for GEOSS. |
| | 32 | |
| | 33 | == Proposal == |
| | 34 | We are aware of efforts underway for !GeoNetwork v3 to add support for |
| | 35 | CSW ebRIM, but understand that it may be implemented primarily as a |
| | 36 | server export option. GEOSS is already harvesting some ebRIM sources |
| | 37 | (most notably, the Component and Service Registry) via CSW and |
| | 38 | anticipate more sources to come. We propose to provide support for |
| | 39 | harvesting and ingesting ebRIM into !GeoNetwork collections. |
| | 40 | |
| | 41 | Also, as needed, we propose to test and add support for FGDC and CSW ISO |
| | 42 | metadata. |
| | 43 | |
| | 44 | === Backwards Compatibility Issues === |
| | 45 | None anticipated. |
| | 46 | |
| | 47 | == Risks == |
| | 48 | None forseen. Development will take place on a separate branch so that testing can take place before merging into the trunk. |
