Hola Chiara, To "enrich" the TDS catalog you can use XML namespaces [1]. That allows to use more than one XML schema. In fact the TDS already uses it for the datasetScan to point using XLink schema to the directories been scanned. With respect to the datasetScan feature to create a proxy of an absolute latest atomic dataset, it would require to create an new datasetScan element. Meanwhile you can create/modify the catalogs using an external tool. I would recommend use a tool/library which is XML "aware" to guarantee well formed and semantically correct XML documents, but using other tool would fit your purpose. Take into account that catalog entries generated by datasetScan are created in-memory and they are cached/persisted (???) In specific storage format. One interesting feature in the TDS5.0 version are the dynamic catalogs, similar to a catalogScan. But it has not been officially released but the current beta version already implements it.

The catalog contains meteorological data, but will be enriched by other data sources (ex. a table containing the list of records that were moved to a backup facility and are no longer available on disk, or a table containing pictures related to the files). Is it possible to enrich the xml file with other data (ex. inserting xml nodes directly into the file) without breaking thredds functionalities? What strategy do you recommend (ex. a bash script to modify the xml, or...?). Note that I'm using a <datasetScan> to recursively get all items in a nested folder structure, so I would like to modify the 'real' xml catalog that contains all the nodes (some information should to be inserted at the container level, others at the data level).
