'Not Entered' values for rastermetadata datasets #3

Open sppigot opened 5 years ago

sppigot commented 5 years ago

eg.

             <delwp:resamplingKernel>
              <delwp:MD_ResamplingKernelCode codeList="codeListLocation#MD_ResamplingKernelCode" codeListValue="Not Entered"/>
             </delwp:resamplingKernel>

If this is a valid codelist entry then should it be converted to gco:nilReason="unknown" in the XML?

Actually there is little difference between gco:nilReason='unknown' and a codelistValue = Not Entered and in many cases the code list value Not Entered is more easily understood than gco:nilReason so leave codelists as is.

Codelists are fine but many records still have abstract and purpose as NotEntered or some other null value like NotRecorded. This needs to be fixed with gco:nilReason='unknown'
