Can ncISO output links to THREDDS dataset pages, in addition to the service links?

Closed this issue · 2 comments

From the Catalog, it would be nice if one of the links included under 'Data and Resources' links directly to the THREDDS dataset page.

Here's an example:

GEBCO_08 Grid -> http://thredds.aoos.org/thredds/catalog.html?dataset=GEBCO

rather than: GEBCO_08 Grid -> http://thredds.aoos.org/thredds/dodsC/GEBCO.nc.html -> http://thredds.aoos.org/thredds/catalog.html -> manuallly navigate THREDDS catalog tree -> http://thredds.aoos.org/thredds/catalog.html?dataset=GEBCO

This would be an update to threddsISO to output the dataset page links in the ISO XML.

cc: @kevin-obrien @noaaroland FYI, just wanted to bring this idea to your attention.

Would an enhancement request/issue be appropriate on the threddsISO repo?

Going to close this as I don't really have control over the ISO metadata generated by clients. It's not usually desirable to be editing metadata, but if it's something we really want to revisit, we can.
