RE: [OSGeo-Discuss] Metadata Server applications?
Ken: you could use OGC CSW for discovery, which allows for spatial/aspatial search and present functionality, assuming you have some sort of standardized metadata (ISO, Dublin Core, etc.). Sounds like you need to connect and expose existing metadata to a search server. As for implementations, you also can check out deegree (http://www.deegree.org/) and eXcat (http://gdsc.nlr.nl/gdsc/en/tools/excat). As well, pycsw (http://pycsw.org/) is a new project which covers OGC CSW. Hope this helps. ..Tom > -Original Message- > From: discuss-boun...@lists.osgeo.org > [mailto:discuss-boun...@lists.osgeo.org] On Behalf Of Ken > Sent: Friday, 04 March 2011 10:44 > To: discuss@lists.osgeo.org > Subject: [OSGeo-Discuss] Metadata Server applications? > > I am looking to see if there any new open source metadata > server applications.

RE: [OSGeo-Discuss] Creating *.shp.xml files with open source tools
Also check out http://www.fgdc.gov/metadata/iso-metadata-editor-review. It also depends on what your metadata requirements are in terms of standards support. ISO 19139:2007 (or some profile of, such as North American Profile) is the metadata standard of choice for many SDI actitivites currently. ..Tom > -Original Message- > From: discuss-boun...@lists.osgeo.org > [mailto:discuss-boun...@lists.osgeo.org] On Behalf Of Alex Mandel > Sent: Friday, 18 February 2011 14:36 > To: discuss@lists.osgeo.org > Subject: Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Creating *.shp.xml files with > open source tools > > I created an experimental plugin for QGIS to deal with > Metadata xml records.

RE: [OSGeo-Discuss] Geenral question about pinging a service for"aliveness" . . .
I started a Python library on this some time ago, based on the FGDC service status checker [1] approach, which can give some ideas on how/what is monitored. It would be valuable to have some health check type tools here; I'd be happy to contribute the code and setup a public repo/effort. ..Tom [1] http://registry.fgdc.gov/statuschecker/ > -Original Message- > From: discuss-boun...@lists.osgeo.org > [mailto:discuss-boun...@lists.osgeo.org] On Behalf Of Bob Basques > Sent: Monday, 24 January 2011 11:17 > To: OSGeo Discussions > Subject: [OSGeo-Discuss] Geenral question about pinging a > service for"aliveness" . . . > > All, > > > I'm working on a system/services monitor, and got to > wondering about how to best ping a map service without too > much overhead. an "I'm Alive" function in the service would > be the easiest way to approach it.

Have you considered doing your .xsd as a GML application schema, where you would extend as follows: By extending gml:AbstractFeatureType, you inherit gml:location (among other things), from which you can express various geometry types.
