[Incubator] New Projects - TODO

[Jeroen Ticheler]

Hi Tyler,
Here's a contribution for the GeoNetwork opensource page:

GeoNetwork opensource: a standards based Geographic Data and  
Information Management System for the web

Home Page: http://geonetwork-opensource.org
Mailing List: http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=72096

Description:
GeoNetwork opensource is a catalog application to manage spatially  
referenced resources. It provides powerful metadata editing and  
search functions as well as an embedded interactive web map viewer.

GeoNetwork opensource  has been developed to connect spatial  
information communities and their data using a modern architecture,  
which is at the same time powerful and low cost, based on the  
principles of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) and International  
and Open Standards for services and protocols (a.o. from ISO/TC211  
and OGC).

Features:
     * Immediate search access to local and distributed geospatial  
catalogues
     * Up- and downloading of data, graphics, documents, pdf files  
and any other content type
     * An interactive Web Map Viewer to combine Web Map Services from  
distributed servers around the world
     * A randomly selected Featured Map
     * Recently updated entries, also accessible as RSS news feeds  
and as GeoRSS.
     * Online editing of metadata with a powerful template system
     * Native support for ISO19115/ISO19139, FGDC and Dublin Core  
formatted metadata
     * Scheduled harvesting and synchronization of metadata between  
distributed catalogues
     * Fine-grained access control
     * Group and user management
     * Multi-lingual user interface

Attached are the logo and screenshots.
Hope this helps. Thanks for creating the page!
Ciao,
Jeroen
