ISO19115: details as extra metadata instead of details_table in <gmd:abstract> #266

Open AlexDo1 opened 1 year ago

AlexDo1 commented 1 year ago

Currently, details are put into field <gmd:abstract> as Markdown tables.
We should use the field <supplementalInformation> instead.

supplementalInformation – Other descriptive information about the dataset. Type: gco:characterString Domain: free text Multiplicity: optional Attributes: nilReason

This is not ideal behavior. The details should end up as extra metadata info in the iso. It has an entity for that. Just putting tables into the abstract is not the final behavior.

Maybe we keep the function for now, but implement the proper behavior as soon as possible. Thus, this should open an urgent issue.
