Thoughts on dcat-ap-to-iso19115?

[fleimgruber]

Follow-up on #70 (comment), specifically:

Since we have seen indications of stakeholders using or planning to use GeoDCAT-AP as the primary representation of geospatial metadata, generating INSPIRE metadata for compliance purposes (which is the reverse direction to the XSLT), it could be beneficial not to introduce new lossy mappings.

We have seen similar requests and would also go the reverse direction of the iso-19139-to-dcat-ap XSLT, hence the title of this issue.

Are there plans to do this? Stakeholders wanting this feature could collaborate? Or are there alternative ways to do GeoDCAT-AP to ISO19115 XML conversion?

This is a question that is becoming increasingly frequent. Currently, this is out-of-scope of the planned works on GeoDCAT-AP, but it may (have to) be addressed in the future.

Thanks for checking back and good to see that it's on the radar at least.
