Create a New Harvesting Dataverse

You can create two types of harvesting dataverse:

  • OAI Harvesting Dataverse - This type of dataverse harvests data from OAI servers.
    Refer to Open Archives Initiative for information about OAI services.
  • Nesstar Harvesting Dataverse - This type of dataverse harvests data from Nesstar servers.
    Refer to Nesstar, owned by Norwegian Social Science Data Services (NSD), for information about Nesstar services.

When a dataverse harvests from another service, the first harvesting is a full harvest. For all other harvesting, an update is performed.

See the following topics for detailed information about how to create these dataverses:
