Purpose: The element within the extended INSPIRE capabilities of an ISO 19128 – WMS 1.3.0 wms:Capability element shall be used to reference the INSPIRE service metadata available through an INSPIRE Discovery Service. Mandatory ISO 19128 – WMS 1.3.0 metadata elements shall be mapped to INSPIRE metadata elements to implement a consistent interface.
Prerequisites
- Test for the existence of default element namespace.
- Test for the existence of the namespaces for INSPIRE View Services inspire_vs and inspire_common.
Test method
- First check if the metadata URL node exists in the ExtendedCapabilities section and validates against the ISO metadata schema.
- If no metadata URL is given then all mandatory [ISO 19128 metadata elements](see TG VS, Table 3) must exist in the ExtendedCapabilities section.
Reference(s):
- TG VS, Chapter 4.2.3.3.1
- IR Annex III, Part A, Chapter 2.2.1
