This extension contains plugins that add geospatial capabilities to CKAN, including:
- A spatial field on the default CKAN dataset schema, that uses PostGIS as the backend and allows to perform spatial queries and to display the dataset extent on the frontend.
- Harvesters to import geospatial metadata into CKAN from other sources in ISO 19139 format and others.
- Commands to support the CSW standard using pycsw.
Note: The view plugins for rendering spatial formats like GeoJSON have been moved to ckanext-geoview.

Change anchor pattern matching in WAF harvester to capture html anchor tags produced by ERDDAP on its WAF page [44b84fb](https://github.com/cioos-siooc/ckanext-spatial/commit/44b84fbd6bb40005bd75510d05f6818d9ff8de62)
If using the default spatial indexing (solr) only bounding box's are excepted as dataset extents. We made a small change to the before_indexing function to convert points to a 2m by 2m bounding box so that datasets with point extents would work with the default indexing. [fcf411b](https://github.com/cioos-siooc/ckanext-spatial/commit/fcf411be168e585da983486d111decc6e85be8ed)
adjusted icon path for map to work with ckan sites that are not hosted at the root url. Also added alterntive_url to spatial widget which allows placing the map on pages other then the default dataset page. [3c66e24](https://github.com/cioos-siooc/ckanext-spatial/commit/3c66e24e59fc6138c089538307c9ff3ec57c99b3), [7abd586](https://github.com/cioos-siooc/ckanext-spatial/commit/7abd58658bc3595c8a0e584f0f3e9be95fb766ea)
Add config option to control if the spatial widget (map) expands when doing a spatial search. Can be set by adding
` ckan.spatial.spatial_widget_expands = true | false `to production.ini
[cc588c1](https://github.com/cioos-siooc/ckanext-spatial/commit/cc588c1f8d92a0fbee088398ee02f719eabf0bc2)
Added custom csw harvester for geonetwork to handle pulling groups from geonetwork and populating in ckan. To make use of this feature you must specify a group mapping dictionary in the config for the harvester. Group mapping follows the same format as used by the ckan harvester. [484e39e](https://github.com/cioos-siooc/ckanext-spatial/commit/484e39ec841f37dbe0a5f67c23b3bc68bec82caa), [08e4832](https://github.com/cioos-siooc/ckanext-spatial/commit/08e483227ef8ed15fbedab47fc4da45f02254d35), [5695d1d](https://github.com/cioos-siooc/ckanext-spatial/commit/5695d1d900ef34e4a4143719dbdfbc24133d180e)
Add group mapping to WAF harvester.
[0f25a0b](https://github.com/cioos-siooc/ckanext-spatial/commit/0f25a0bdb591b413f89d4e716118fd8269aede1b), [20236c8](https://github.com/cioos-siooc/ckanext-spatial/commit/20236c85bff69a2ab03a7e9b6aea28478fee840e) * Add remote_orgs support to spatial base. Harvesting of remote organizations
works similarly to the ckan harvester base but matches on organization name.
Name is pulled from metadata in responsible party or metadata contact fields.
Also added is an organization_mapping field that works similarly to
group_mapping. Temote organization names that match the dictionary key are
mapped to local org names. The local names are used as organization titles and
regex replaced to conform to ckan org names internally. To use add
`
"remote_orgs": "create"
"organization_mapping":{"REMOTE ORG NAME": "Local Org Name"}
`
to the harvester config. [5d0fbd0](https://github.com/cioos-siooc/ckanext-spatial/commit/5d0fbd0e33f7ee72d5576ba97781465971c5c839)
- update ckan_pycsw so it works with current stable version of pycsw and add
option to pull spatial record from the package_converter extension. To use
add the following to the pycsw config file.
` [server] harvest_type = package_converter `[08cc41b](https://github.com/cioos-siooc/ckanext-spatial/commit/08cc41b414c513c2f5ff53dfa556cd8829ad4f31), [b404f2e](https://github.com/cioos-siooc/ckanext-spatial/commit/b404f2e822109126609529d7c5d9aad32f69295a), [8ac08f9](https://github.com/cioos-siooc/ckanext-spatial/commit/8ac08f95ce79f3b51fc01a5d51a902d32415aaca) - add 'parser' harvester config option to control which iso model is used. Valid values are 'iso19139' and 'iso19115'. parser defaults to using the iso19115 model if not set
- split the harvest_metadata.py file into a defailt iso19115 version and a iso19139 version to make it easier to manage harvesting using these two standards
- add a DataStreams specific waf harvester that scrapes a sitemap to find its datasets
