Configuring validation levels

Each standard defines validation levels. By default, ISO19139 proposes validation using:

  • ISO rules
  • INSPIRE rules (TG v1.3)
  • GeoNetwork rules (only related to multilingual records)
  • URL checker

All levels will be applied by default during validation and the admin interface allows customization if a rule:

  • is required to be valid (will be reported in green/red depending on the status)
  • is for information only (will be reported in blue)
  • is ignored.

Also conditions can be set to only apply rules to specific records. The condition can be defined on:

  • XPath
  • Group
  • User profile
  • Keyword

For example, geocat.ch defines for the GM03 ISO19139 profile rules depending on groups (ie. partners) and the type of dataset eg. a basic geodata.
