Implementing VIVO requires careful planning of both technical (site/system administration and data curation) and non-technical (policy, management) elements. There is a standing weekly monthly Implementation and Development Call, a public development mailing list, and a public implementation mailing list. See the VIVO Implementation Resources section below for more information. Please note that institutions implementing VIVO for the purpose of evaluating this solution may find additional resources in the Evaluating VIVO section of this wiki.

  • Join the mailing lists. There are three - the ontology, implementation, and development lists.
  • Join the calls.
  • Read the Install Guide, the VIVO 1.2 Data Ingest Guide, and become familiar with this wiki (be aware that some of the material in this wiki may refer to earlier versions of VIVO and Harvester - check the wiki for newer version alerts).
  • Explore the VIVO Virtual Appliance before installing your VIVO instance.
  • Go through the VIVO 1.2 Data Ingest Guide
  • Learn how to add and remove RDF statements. If you're adding RDF via the Add/Remove RDF data tool under Advanced Data Tools (Site Admin) save your RDF file because you can use it to remove the same RDF.
  • Take a look at some SPARQL Resources and the Semantic Web resources page. TODO: add some example queries specific to the data ingest guide.
  • Try the command line harvester examples such as the JDBC Example Script. These examples are located in your Harvester folder (a mysql dump is provided in the example-jdbc folder). The scripts are located at /usr/share/vivo/harvester/example-scripts/ in the VIVO 1.3 VirtualBox appliance.
