Description

The goal of the project is to harvest content regarding archaeology and architecture (mostly monuments) from
a number of content providers, and deliver it to Europeana. The technical architecture is being implemented
and supported by the two technical partners of the project: National Technical University of Athens (NTUA)
and Digital Curation Unit of the Athena Research Centre (DCU). The architecture specifies a three stage
process, described below.

This deliverable describes in detail the testing of the CARARE harvesting and ingestion system. This system
is comprised of two main components: a) the mapping tool (NTUA) and b) the CARARE repository (DCU).
The first component allows the content providers to upload their metadata (or for it to be harvested by the
tool) and map them to the CARARE metadata schema. The metadata is then transformed; the submission
packages are created and are streamed to the repository.

The points of focus in this deliverable are the following:

  • The harvesting of the content providers’ metadata into the mapping tool
  • The mapping to the CARARE schema
  • The creation of the submission packages and their ingestion to the repository
