Location of seeAlso links (“Other Formats”)

[c-blair]

Here is a use case: I want to give a human viewer the opportunity to see an overlay of the map in the Allmaps viewer.

"seeAlso": [
{
"id": "https://viewer.allmaps.org/?url=https://annotations.allmaps.org/maps/64394390ab54c9a7/",
"type": "Dataset",
"format": "application/json",
"label": {
"en": [
"Allmaps Georeferencing Data"
]
},
"profile": "https://viewer.allmaps.org/?url=https://annotations.allmaps.org/maps/64394390ab54c9a7/"
}
],

Hmm. I can see it when I click on Export:

Other Formats
Allmaps Georeferencing Data

That's a peculiar place to put it, I think.

So it is working, but not as expected? We are open for suggestions.

It's there, but under Export, which doesn't strike me as being a likely place for a user to go and find it. If one is viewing a map, for example, and one has a See Also link to the Allmaps viewer, I think it is preferable for the user to see the See Also link directly under Info, which is where the metadata display. Then the user can say, Oh, I can also see this other related resource, and directly click on the link. Otherwise, a potentially useful related resource is at a very real risk of not being discovered at all.
