Bug Report: Point dataset presented incorrectly as very large bounded boxes #1548

Bug Description
When searching for datasets in the Mediterranean, we were surprised to find this result declaratively collected from a river estuary in the USA: https://data.noaa.gov/onestop/collections/details/56c9661e-ac7b-4aba-9495-214eb0e2cb5f

The bounding box is shown to cover almost half of the world:

But looking at the metadata file, it was obvious that whatever process is scraping this data into OneStop is assigning 0 value to two of the bounding box points when the original dataset is marked with a point:

<gmd:geographicElement>
<gmd:EX_GeographicBoundingBox id="boundingGeographicBoundingBox">
<gmd:westBoundLongitude>
<gco:Decimal>-124.003</gco:Decimal>
</gmd:westBoundLongitude>
<gmd:eastBoundLongitude>
<gco:Decimal>0</gco:Decimal>
</gmd:eastBoundLongitude>
<gmd:southBoundLatitude>
<gco:Decimal>0</gco:Decimal>
</gmd:southBoundLatitude>
<gmd:northBoundLatitude>
<gco:Decimal>46.261667</gco:Decimal>
</gmd:northBoundLatitude>
</gmd:EX_GeographicBoundingBox>
</gmd:geographicElement>

Platform/Environment
Windows / Chrome

Severity
Severity: HIGH - geographic data search cannot be trusted
Priority: Low - looks like the site is dead anyways

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Search for datasets in the Mediterranean bounding box including the Gibraltar straits
  2. Find datasets in the results that are obviously not from this area

Expected Result
This dataset should be marked as a point dataset.

Actual Result
The dataset has a huge bounding box
