I have about 15 or so OGC services running with MapServer, mostly WMS but a few WFS and hopefully some WCS in the future. I'd like to have an easy way for users to browse through my services. Of course, I can manually create a web page listing my services but there should be something better. A CSW catalog would be nice as traditional desktop GIS users can easily browse/search and add my services directly to their GIS. It'd also be great if my services could be harvested by other catalogs.
Does anyone know of a way to run a CSW-compliant app by simply adding existing etCapability URLs? I know about GeoNetwork but it doesn't seem like I need the full GUI or multi-user editor as it's only me (plus I'd rather not have to manually create/maintain records for each service as I think I'd have to with GN.) Does anyone know if MapServer can perform like a CSW, perhaps by pointing to local map files? In the end, I'm looking for a way to easily maintain a catalog of OGC services through integrating existing services as much as possible. Thanks for any guidance. - John *********************************************** John Callahan, Research Scientist Delaware Geological Survey, University of Delaware URL: http://www.dgs.udel.edu *************************************************
