<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi, <br></div><div>usually I use an external tool to harvest QGIS projects and create ISO / DC metadata and push them through CWST to the catalog that is available. <br></div><div><br></div><div>Talend metadatacrawler allows this easily.  Having this embedded into QGIS could help indeed. I would very much like the ability to handle metadata templates so that administrator can configure most fields and let users deal with the essential ones.  Having the ability to convert from Dublin-core to FDGC / ISO / INSPIRE is also necessary to me. Users tend to use Dublin core, but legal infrastructure require more advanced formats like ISO. Moreover, creating a UI to edit the hierarchical XML structure of ISO is quite a nightmare, and I would avoid trying to reproduce in QGIS what took years to achieve in Geonetwork. <br></div><div><br></div><div>long story short :<br></div><div>+1 for editing in Dublin core, add ISO / FDGC templates and features to export / commit via CSW-T more advanced formats. -1 to try to reimplement one edit form per metadata format. <br></div><div><br></div><div>Cheers</div><div>Régis<br></div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">Le lun. 4 nov. 2019 à 13:36, Tim Sutton <<a href="mailto:tim@kartoza.com">tim@kartoza.com</a>> a écrit :<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div style="overflow-wrap: break-word;">Hi Falk<div><br></div><div>That plugin you mention is for QGIS 1.x. As far as I know it is not ported to ver 2 or ver 3 of QGIS. In the current version of QGIS a better approach would be to implement a convertor tool that exports QGIS’s internal format to FDGC. If you are interested in funding this work please chat to me, we have some plans to provide a generic metadata exchange library that can integrate with QGIS but it needs funders.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards</div><div><br></div><div>Tim<br><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>On 4 Nov 2019, at 09:46, Paolo Cavallini <<a href="mailto:cavallini@faunalia.it" target="_blank">cavallini@faunalia.it</a>> wrote:</div><br><div><div>Hi Falk,<br><br>Il 02/11/19 19:01, Falk Huettmann ha scritto:<br><blockquote type="cite">...it's this one that features FGDC metadata for QGIS and which is not<br>loading/dead<br><a href="http://wiki.gis-lab.info/w/Working_with_metadata_using_Metatools_for_QGIS" target="_blank">http://wiki.gis-lab.info/w/Working_with_metadata_using_Metatools_for_QGIS</a> <br>but without seeing their (plugin) details my expertise ends there.<br></blockquote><br>I think you should be able to install and test the plugin on a previous<br>QGIS version (2.18 should be suitable, and available through our<br>archives). If this fits your needs, porting would be reasonably easy, as<br>mentioned.<br><br><blockquote type="cite">Ideally, it needs to be updated to and include Metavist Wizard (latest<br>version of the US gov)<br><a href="https://www.fgdc.gov/metadata/geospatial-metadata-tools" target="_blank">https://www.fgdc.gov/metadata/geospatial-metadata-tools</a> <br>listed in here:<br><a href="https://www.fgdc.gov/metadata/geospatial-metadata-tools" target="_blank">https://www.fgdc.gov/metadata/geospatial-metadata-tools</a> <br></blockquote><br>let's first see if porting makes sense, then further improvements can be<br>explored.<br>Cheers.<br><br>-- <br>Paolo Cavallini - <a href="http://www.faunalia.eu" target="_blank">www.faunalia.eu</a><br><a href="http://QGIS.ORG" target="_blank">QGIS.ORG</a> Chair:<br><a href="http://planet.qgis.org/planet/user/28/tag/qgis%20board/" target="_blank">http://planet.qgis.org/planet/user/28/tag/qgis%20board/</a><br>_______________________________________________<br>QGIS-Developer mailing list<br><a href="mailto:QGIS-Developer@lists.osgeo.org" target="_blank">QGIS-Developer@lists.osgeo.org</a><br>List info: <a href="https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer" target="_blank">https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer</a><br>Unsubscribe: <a href="https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer" target="_blank">https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer</a></div></div></blockquote></div><br><div>
