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.


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

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.
