Production Release 2.4.0

Release Name: Production Release 2.4.0

Release Date: 20 March 2015

Release Notes:

  • A new feature for publishing EML (Ecological Metadata Language) metadata standard in addition to current metadata. This will broaden access to metadata from Ó”KOS globally.
  • Data in Ó”KOS has been mapped to a RDF standard repository (Resource Description Framework). This is the first stage in delivering a system interface for direct querying using SPARQL, a key query language of the semantic web.
  • TERN has partnered with DataOne, and Eco-informatics (on behalf of TERN) has now built a Node to join the DataONE network. Data holdings from all facilities across TERN currently using the EML metadata standard, including Ó”KOS are discoverable via the DataONE network.
  • Improved 'free text' searches on Integrated Site Data metadata (Abstract, Objectives and Methods sections), improved Ó”KOS security and removed unused search terms.
  • Bug fixes (18)
