      * A Spatial EML Document describes and includes a spatial dataset (eg, a .shp or .dxf file). The 

      EML must reference the spatial dataset as a file(s).  The spatial data file(s) and the EML that references it must be combined in 

      a standard Zip file for uploading.

          <tr><td> This is a demonstration of the Metacat Spatial Option (MSO) 

          that shows the ability to select Ecological Markup Language (EML) 

          documents stored in the Metacat server: (metacat.nceas.ucsb.edu).  

          Additionally, the user may choose to select places in the USA - for 

          a qualitative sense of where (spatially) the EML documents exist. 

          <br><br>

          1] to select the EML Document: zoom in, press the blue info 'i' button and point to a red dot.

          <br><br>

          2] to select a known place: zoom in, press the blue info 'i' button, press the 'circled i' (next to the USA known places layer selector) and then point to a black dot.

          <br><br><p>

          * Make sure to position the mouse directly over the feature while selecting it.

          <br>

          * Any of these features can be made selectable by a simple configuration change see: <a href="available_layers.html">selectable layers</a> 

          <br>

          * EML documents are represented as red dots -- the center of the dot is the geometric center of that EML data package. (a dataset comprising a global 

          study will lie at the intersection of the equator and the prime meridian).
