CEDEUS CSW

There exists two options to retrieve metadata from GeoNode:

• using OGC CSW standard, and
• using the GeoNode - Django API.

Using GeoNode CSW

Geonode comes with pyCSW installed (see FAQ pyCSW). The general backend is:

http://datos.cedeus.cl/catalogue/csw

And a request can look like that:

http://datos.cedeus.cl/catalogue/csw?service=CSW&version=2.0.2&request=GetRecords&typenames=csw:Record&elementsetname=full&resulttype=results

As one can see the results include spatial and non-spatial records (i.e. the first document below is a pdf). Another option is to use a CSW plugin for GeoServer (but this is of course not installed for GeoNode).

Using GeoNode API

when using the Search field of GeoNode an API request is done. However, unfortunately the response seems to be a html document. So, I am not sure we can use this for a search from a remote website.

A GET request (as send from the search field) looks like this:

http://datos.cedeus.cl/search/api?type=all&limit=10&sort=none&start=0&q=Copiapo

And the response starts like this:

{"success": true, "facets": {"map": 0, "layer": 2, "raster": 1, "vector": 1, "user": 0, "document": 0}, 
"results": [{"category": "imageryBaseMapsEarthCover", "rating": 0.0, "_type": "layer", "name": "cediz-images:COPIAPO", "links": ...
