> GeoNetwork opensource ( http://geonetwork-opensource.org ) is a
> standards based geospatial catalog application that helps people and
> organizations to organize and publish their geospatial data through
> the web. It is currently used in numerous Spatial Data Infrastructure
> initiatives across the world.

> 
> The software provides an easy to use web interface to search
> geospatial data across multiple catalogs, combine distributed map
> services in the embedded map viewer, publish geospatial data using the
> online metadata editing tools and optionally the embedded GeoServer
> map server. Administrators have the option to manage user and group
> accounts, configure the server through web based and desktop utilities
> and schedule metadata harvesting from other catalogs. 
>  
> You will find support for a number of metadata formats (ISO19115/19119
> following ISO19139, FGDC and Dublin Core), a number of catalog
> interfaces (OGC-CSW2.0.2 ISO profile client and server, OAI-PMH client
> and server, GeoRSS server, GEO OpenSearch server, WebDAV harvesting,
> GeoNetwork to GeoNetwork harvesting support).

> A single, platform independent installer allows to install and run the
> software on a PC or a server on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. The
> installer can be downloaded as an executable Windows file or as a
> platform independent .jar installer. It creates a Start menu on
> Windows computers. Command line installations are also possible for
> remote installations. Please refer to the manual for detailed
> installation instructions.

> The GeoNetwork community has been expanding quickly over the last
> years. The current release has been possible because of all those that
> contributed to the project through code contributions, testing, bug
> reports and fixes as well as many suggestions.
