[Oskari-user] Metadata handling in Oskari admin?

[Sanna Jokela]

Hi!

When adding new layers to Oskari and providing the admin the
GetCapabilities link for the layer, should the admin also detect
automatically what metadata link to use? Or do you always have to give the
metadata url links separately?

I tested this with Natalia from Lounaistieto (they have updated Oskari to
the newest version) and we did not get the metadata straight from the
GetCapabilities url (might be due to GeoServer also), but adding the
metadatalink separately by hand did produce the correct result.

So the question: should the detection of metadata be automatic?

And if it is automated, in case the layer would have two metadata links,
which one Oskari chooses? I just noticed that GeoServer provides the
possibility to add several metadata links for the layer. This could be the
case if you would have INSPIRE metadata description in national search
portals and own metadata description in local services.

Br,
