Worked on the geonetwork/geonetwork-ui repository, delivering features that improved data integrity, user experience, and test reliability. Built UI enhancements such as spatial extent controls and autocomplete refinements using Angular and TypeScript, while strengthening metadata management through draft state enforcement and harvested records edit protection. Enhanced dataset discovery by tuning Elasticsearch-backed similarity search and refactoring payload handling for more relevant recommendations. Focused on robust end-to-end and unit testing with Cypress to reduce CI flakiness and ensure maintainable code. Applied code refactoring and internationalization updates, resulting in a more consistent, scalable, and reliable frontend for geospatial data management workflows.
April 2025 monthly summary for geonetwork/geonetwork-ui: Delivered Harvested Records Edit Protection to safeguard external/harvested data and prevent unintended edits by default; introduced isHarvested flag in search criteria and a new system setting to preserve data integrity. This work reduces risk of data drift in harvested records and sets governance groundwork for data provenance. Commit reference included.

February 2025: Strengthened QA and stability for geonetwork-ui by stabilizing End-to-End tests on dataset detail pages. Updated tests to use a different dataset ID for related records, added validation for related records display with a new dataset, and adjusted expected text to accommodate longer titles. These changes reduce flaky CI, improve confidence in UI data relationships, and streamline future test maintenance.

January 2025 (geonetwork-ui): Focused on improving dataset discovery through smarter related datasets recommendations and robust test coverage. Delivered an enhanced dataset detail experience by refining the Elasticsearch similarity search to weigh title, abstract, and keywords, and refactoring to use the full record payload for more accurate results. Updated end-to-end and unit tests to reflect the new behavior and dataset title changes, reducing regression risk and setting the foundation for scalable improvements in search relevance. Business impact includes higher discovery relevance, improved user engagement with datasets, and a more maintainable codebase.
