Introduction

Why GeoNetwork-UI ?

The GeoNetwork-UI project has been conceived as a way to depart from the long-standing and hard-to-use GeoNetwork interface, and offer new functionalities and better user experience on top of the existing GeoNetwork API. Its core functionalities are a powerful search engine, various data visualization components, and a better support for non-geographic and open data resources.
