How it works Geoserver Geonetwork Publish services Harvesting Geoserver admin Geonetwork admin User adminContent reviewerEditorRegistered user
Functionalities User and group management Searching of spatial data Map viewer to combine WMS Metadata editing Up- and downloading of data Harvesting and synchronization of metadata
Categories Background datasets Geological data Hydrological data Meteorological data Proceedings Resources Water bodies
Group management 3 types Professors Staffs Students
User management Define the profile and group Profile Administrator (super user) User administrator (add/import metadata, transfer ownership, user management) Content reviewer (add/import metadata) Editor (add/import metadata) Registered user (view)
