Email ask-sdm@usgs.gov if you wish to contact the USGS Science Data Management (SDM) team’s application support inbox directly with bugs or feature requests. Otherwise, use the template below.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
FGDC metadata allows for multiple SDTS terms, or pairs of Vector Object Types and Point or Vector Object counts. However, the Metadata Wizard user interface only allows for one entry. Additionally, if I open a metadata xml file in Metadata Wizard that contains multiple SDTS terms and then save through the Wizard, it only retains one of the SDTS terms.

I filed this as a feature request, though I suppose it could also be a bug since the wizard is removing information present in the xml file.

Describe the solution you'd like
Support in the user interface for multiple SDTS terms OR prevent the wizard from deleting extra terms when saving.

Describe alternatives you've considered
One work around is to simply re-add the SDTS terms directly to the xml file once done with Metadata Wizard. But, that is not an elegant solution.
