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 information for other layers - for
a qualitative sense of where (spatially) the EML documents exist.
1] to select information for layers: zoom in, press the blue info 'i' button, press the 'circled i' (next to desired layer) and point at the feature. * Make sure to position the mouse directly over the feature while selecting it. * 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). |
