GeoNetwork harvester for CKAN

ckanext-geonetwork

GeoNetwork harvester for CKAN

Main purposes:

• Handle some GeoNetwork specific coding (e.g. OGC:WMS* protocol in onlineResource maps to the specific wms format in CKAN)
• Provide mapping from GeoNetwork categories into CKAN groups
• Some schemas provide GML elements with the old namespace URI http://www.opengis.net/gml while the standard CKAN CSW harvester parses elements with the http://www.opengis.net/gml/3.2 namespace. This harvester enables both URIs.
• Since GeoNetwork provides also front-end services, the harvester may build some extras fields containing URL pointing to well-known services (e.g. the extra value gn_view_metadata_url will automatically be created with a value of the related entry in geonetwork: http://yourgnportal/geonetwork/srv/it/metadata.show?uuid=arw_3km_High_cloud_cover_HCY_20150323T000000000Z).
