2022.5 Update

Catalogue services

Updated to the latest GeoNetwork Enterprise 2022.4 release.

User interface:

Improvement: Added setting option to show app version and links to About, GitHub and API pages in footer.

Map viewer:

Improvement: Map generation in PDF export has been improved by updating the library from iText to OpenPDF.

Administration:

Bugfix: Fixed incorrect Slovenian language code that gave an error when loading INSPIRE thesauruses.
Bugfix: The harvester of type Geonetwork has been corrected to preserve the files associated with the metadata because executing it several times would delete the files.
Improvement: Add the number of files to retrieve to the log file in the WebDav harvester.
Improvement: The configuration of the type of user with permissions to delete published metadata has been added in settings.

Metadata:

Bugfix: Fixed the data language label on the Identification tab in the full view of the metadata page so that the correct label is displayed.
Bugfix: Fixed error that occurred when editing metadata approved by a user who is not the owner, leaving this metadata in an unknown state instead of the Approved with working copy state.
Bugfix: Fixed to hide the publish DOI option in the metadata editor, when the metadata workflow is enabled for a metadata, as only approved/published metadata can request DOI publication.

To publish the DOI of a metadata in the workflow, it must first be approved/published. This action in the metadata editor should not be available.
Improvement: The value of the metadata standard name in the conversion of the metadata ISO 19115:2003/19139 to the format ISO 19115-3:2018 has been corrected. Previously the wrong ISO 19115:2003/19139 value was put instead of the correct ISO 19115-3:2018 value.
Improvement: In case a metadata is referenced by several INSPIRE ATOM feeds, select one of them and ignore the rest.
Improvement: User metadata feedback / the validation of the information in the Add your reviewew option has been improved to display the validation errors.
Bugfix: Fixed an issue where DOI publication option was not shown as enabled after publishing metadata.
Bugfix: Fixed the problem that occurred in the map thumbnail in which selecting the layout of type Landscape the image was rotated vertically.

Canadian metadata schema (HNAP):

Bugfix: Fix country validation when one of the language values is missing, it was not reporting the validation error, and add validation for administrative area.
Improvement: Increase the number of suggestions in the metadata editor for country, administrative area (province) and organisation names.

Security:

Improvement: The way of processing the information in keycloak has been improved by updating the language code to take into account the regional information.

Dutch Geografie 2.0.0 schema:

Bugfix: Fixed the data language label on the Identification tab in the full view of the metadata page so that the correct label is displayed. Taal van de metadata was displayed and the correct one is Taal van de bron.
