Markus, Éamonn<br>
<br>
Thank you for these clarifications. I had probably misunderstood from
some earlier presentations that this interface would have already been
bundled in IPT.<br>
<br>
RSS feed is certainly useful the way you describe.<br>
<br>
However, we have to serve metadata about the results of our
digitisation efforts beyond GBIF to other networks in the cultural
heritage programmes. There I would need Dublin Core served via
OAI-PMH. I believe for you developers it would be easy to add this
functionality in the IPT.<br>

<pre wrap="">Hannu,
we've decided to use simple rss feeds in favor over the OAI-PMH protocol in the IPT.
the RSS feed (atom) is pagable and allows you to iterate over all resources in chronological order.
For example:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://ipt.gbif.org/atom.xml">http://ipt.gbif.org/atom.xml</a>
and if there would have been more resources than 25 the second page would be:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://ipt.gbif.org/atom.xml?page=2">http://ipt.gbif.org/atom.xml?page=2</a>
The rss feed give you the basic metadata directly including the geographic bounding box, a link to the full EML and a link to the resource page on the IPT as well as the resource homepage when existing.
I just see that there is no link to the full dataset (dwc archive) yet. I will add that for the next release so the data can immediately be harvested from there.
I hope this satisfies your needs - its perfect for indexing I believe.
Markus

<pre wrap="">Hi Hannu,
I'm not sure I understand correctly but if you are asking whether the IPT
has an OAI-PMH service built in - it does not. The IPT simply stores
metadata on the server. You would have to implement your own OAI-PMH access
service.
Some tools that may be of use are provided here:

Subject: [IPT] OAI-PMH on IPT
Hello
How can I find the OAI-PMH access point of an IPT resource or of the
entire server? It is not listed among the other webservices &
resources. Is this documented somewhere?
Thanks, Hannu
