Create a new field for spatial envelopes #25

Closed karenmajewicz closed 2 years ago

karenmajewicz commented 2 years ago

This field will be needed for spatial relevancy searching and can only be a rectangular bounding box in the ENVELOPE() format.

Per https://github.com/geoblacklight/geoblacklight/issues/1158, the decision is to name the field dcat_bbox based on the dcat specification with a required format of "ENVELOPE(-79.750232,-71.750494,44.999963,40.499893)"

With the addition of the 3rd field, I wonder if we want to update the application's label for Spatial Extent. Since this is now a complex geometry field, maybe that label is not accurate. Here is the simplest option:

  1. geometry locn_geometry
  2. bounding-box dcat_bbox
  3. centroid dcat_centroid

This makes sense to me. Perhaps "Bounding Box" or "Envelope" instead of "Bbox"?
