Geo informations in DiscoJuice Data Feeds

[Thomas NOEL]

Hi,

I have some changes to propose in https://static.discojuice.org/feeds/renater

For example :

{"entityID":"urn:mace:cru.fr:federation:univ-reunion.fr","country":"FR","title":"Universit\u00e9 de la R\u00e9union","geo":{"lat":"43.5813134","lon":"1.4064492"}}

is in fact in Indian Ocean :

{"entityID":"urn:mace:cru.fr:federation:univ-reunion.fr","country":"FR","title":"Universit\u00e9 de la R\u00e9union","geo":{"lat":"-20.877684","lon":"55.447333"}}

In fact, I do not know where this gelocation information came from : where can I propose modifications ?

Thanks

The geo locations are retrieved from the renater metadata. If renater updates its metadata feed with geo coordinates using MDUI extension as reccomended [1] DiscoJuice will automatically adopt this information.

If there is not geo locations in the renater metadata feed, coordinates are estimated based upon reverse geo location of the IP address for the IdP servers.
