Work History

2 Commits
Feb 1, 2026February 2026 (2026-02) focused on stabilizing metadata handling and schema indexing in geonetwork/core-geonetwork. A pair of bug fixes improved compatibility with older GeoNetwork versions and ensured accurate data representation in ISO 19139/ISO 19115-3 mappings. Specifically, we fixed CQL parsing issues caused by non-breaking spaces, and corrected the maintenanceDate element indexing for ISO19115-3. These changes, implemented via two commits, reduce harvest errors and improve metadata interoperability across downstream systems. Key features delivered and fixes: - Robust metadata parsing: replaced non-breaking spaces with regular spaces in CQL constraints to fix parsing errors for older harvesters (commit 92ad441a2a3e3ff3b7c6180c8941d74df7c94604). - Accurate date indexing in ISO19115-3: corrected the element name for maintenanceDate (commit e8cee088ca714789788d9de0cb8f143d09a8e9ba). - Improved data representation across schema mappings, reducing downstream harvest failures and ensuring metadata remains compliant with ISO mappings.

Oct 1, 2024Month 2024-10 — Key deliverable: Introduced Thesaurus URI Retrieval for RDF-based Schema Plugins in geonetwork/core-geonetwork. The new function enables direct, key-based URI lookups for thesaurus entries, simplifying RDF-based plugin configuration and reducing manual URI mapping. This work, tracked under commit 43a57af1d6c4cc834a337b934603c3449845fe6f with message 'XSL utility / Add function to retrieve thesaurus URI', improves interoperability with external thesauri and shortens onboarding time for new schemas. No major bugs fixed this month (per tracked work). Overall impact: faster, more reliable plugin integration, improved consistency of thesaurus references across metadata workflows. Technologies/skills: RDF-based schema plugin improvements, XSL utility integration, Java/XSLT tooling, incremental feature delivery.
