Summary

  • Removes the fees section from capabilities_open.conf
  • Updates contactInstructions to point to the web support form instead of a direct email address
  • Replaces the full inline licence text in accessConstraints with a URL to the FMI open data licence page

Background

HVD regulation (EU) 2023/138 Article 4 requires terms of use to be available in machine-readable form. The previous accessConstraints contained the full licence text inline; a URL is the correct machine-readable approach per OGC WFS 2.0.

JIRA: https://jira.fmi.fi/browse/PAK-3132

Test plan

  • Verify GetCapabilities response contains <ows:AccessConstraints>https://en.ilmatieteenlaitos.fi/open-data-licence</ows:AccessConstraints>
  • Verify <ows:Fees> element is no longer present
  • Verify <ows:ContactInstructions> contains the web form URL

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Replaces the full inline licence text in capabilities_open.conf with a
URL pointing to https://en.ilmatieteenlaitos.fi/open-data-licence,
satisfying the HVD regulation (EU) 2023/138 Article 4 requirement for
machine-readable terms of use in the open data WFS service.

Also removes the fees section and updates contactInstructions to point
to the web form instead of a direct email address.
