It'd be great if we had a tool that did this, but fully populated a
GeoNode. Basically a medium term goal for the desktop uploader.

Hello,
I have piled up quite some data for a current project.
In order to keep track of the data I would like to use some automatic
indexing
to create a data catalog.
The idea is to cycle through all folders and sub-folders and create a
catalogue
which shows:
* basic data (projection, extend)
* attribute table columns
* data preview
I found two solutions:
* SpatialDataCataloguingScript at
http://code.google.com/p/spatialguru/wiki/SpatialDataCataloguingScript
=> this works well after some fixing.
But how do I best use the generated XML file?
Apparently, gvSIG has some tool as well:
Semi-automatic Metadata Extraction from Imagery and Cartographic data
http://www.geoinfo.uji.es/pubs/igarss07-metadata-cameraready.pdf
What can you recommend?
Thanks in advance,
Timmie
