Esri arcgis type does not specify maps/features #39

pvgenuchten commented 3 years ago

we noticed data providers usually include a arcgis rest maps as well as a arcgis rest features endpoint in their records, is there a way to indicate the difference between the 2 endpoints using a protocol from the cat-interop list, the list only contains a generic 'urn:x-esri:serviceType:ArcGIS' type, should we introduce a subtype 'urn:x-esri:serviceType:ArcGIS:maps' and 'urn:x-esri:serviceType:ArcGIS:features'?

if you do this, I suggest including a type for all ArcGIS service types:

feature service
image service (cached)
image service (dynamic)
map service (dynamic)
map service (cached)
stream service
geocoding service
geoenrichment service
geometry service
geoprocessing service
network analysis service

for a starting point on these services, see: https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/reference/arcgis-server-services.htm
