Endpoints for major CSW servers #19

Closed rsignell-usgs closed 7 years ago

rsignell-usgs commented 9 years ago

In order to populate yet-to-be-added Deprecated column to our CSV, I've been looking at the responses of several major datacenter CSW services. So far I have endpoints:

US NODC, Geoportal Server, http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/geoportal/csw
US NGDC, Geoportal Server, http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/geoportal/csw
US Data.gov, pycsw, http://catalog.data.gov/csw-all
EU Inspire
US USGIN

@smrazgs , what is the USGIN endpoint? @pvgenuchten, what is the INSPIRE endpoint?

Is there a good GI-CAT endpoint?

Go ahead and tell me if this is foolish, or if there is a better way. I can take it. :smile_cat:

There is a list of CSWs at https://github.com/geopython/MetaSearch/blob/master/plugin/MetaSearch/resources/connections-default.xml, which QGIS MetaSearch uses by default.

You can also check out the pycsw live deployments list (map: http://pycsw.org/community/, list: https://github.com/geopython/pycsw/wiki/Live-Deployments

endpoint = 'http://www.nationaalgeoregister.nl/geonetwork/srv/eng/csw' Gave me a 401 (unauthorized)

endpoint = 'http://www.rndt.gov.it/RNDT/CSW' timed out after 60 seconds

The first issue is a bug in OWSLib.
