New Features

  • You can now select a renderer to control the formatting of values displayed in the Feature Explorer. Users have the option to select one of the following renderers:
  1. Default (no renderer)
  2. Formatted number (enter a number format, e.g. ###.##)
  3. Formatted Date (choose a date format option)
  4. Codelist Labels (substitute coded values can be provided in lookup table)
    -- semicolon separated CSV or valid JSON values can be provided
    -- the first column must contain values found in the data and the second column must contain the display values
  • We’ve introduced codelist labels – you can now substitute coded values through labels provided through a lookup table, as shown below

  • We’ve implemented the TG Recommendation C.11: metadata/2.0/rec/common/use-anchors-forspecifications for dataset metadata and service metadata. The gmd:title/gmx:Anchor element can be used to encode references to well-known INSPIRE legal acts. The xlink:href attribute of the gmx:Anchor element can be used to refer to the URI of the specification
  • The coordinates in ATOM feed download files in EPSG:2180 now adhere to the order specified in EPSG registry

Fixes

  • Fix to display accurate number of discussions in discussion badge shown on discussion sections is implemented
  • Validation toggle on a theme can be deactivated
  • "Keep synchronized with data source" and "Synchronize now" toggles are re-enabled on hale»connect
  • Deactivation of the "Show metadata editor on data set creation" toggle removes the metadata related step from the dataset creation workflow
  • Metadata only workflow is improved further to display only those sections relevant to metadata-only publications
  • External metadata that is linked to a resource is no longer added to the hale»connect CSW
