B-HIT Berlin Harvesting and Indexing Toolkit

Check out our publication on B-HIT : [Kelbert et al. 2015 PloS ONE].

B-HIT is based on the GBIF HIT and used to harvest data for GGBN, BiNHum and WorldFloraOnline. The old documentation from GBIF can be accessed here.

It has been actively extended for the BiNHum and GGBN project, in order to support:

  • multiple identifications (without duplication)
  • unit associations
  • ABCD2.1
  • ABCD-Archives
  • extented multimedia fields
  • Supported schema and protocols:
    • ABCD: 2.06, 2.1, EFG, GGBN, GGBN Enviro, ABCD - Archive
    • DwC: DwC 1.0, 1.4, 1.4-Geospatial, 1.4-Curatorial, MaNIS 1.0, MaNIS 1.21, DwC Archive, DwC GGBN

Also, the technology got updated for security issues (latest Java Spring).

The latest version can be downloaded from our svn http://ww2.biocase.org/svn/binhum/trunk/BinHum/Harvester/
