Abstract

As its standard basic activity Croatian Information Documentation Referral Agency (HIDRA) collects, processes, stores and disseminates publicly available official data, information and documentation of the Republic of Croatia. Due to the rapid development of the Internet and related ICT in Croatia the large part of the official documents and publications of the Republic of Croatia is published on the respective Web sites. It is HIDRA's intention to collect electronic resources available via Internet and to enable easy access to that information from one address http://www.hidra.hr. It is also important to preserve authenticity, format and functionality of these resources in order to achieve their long-term preservation and usability.
The basis of the project called POOPD is the Archives of the Networked Documents (AMD) system. AMD is the application system created at University Computing Centre of the University of Zagreb (Srce) as a result of the joint project with HIDRA. The project started in May 2004 with a primary goal to create a system for gathering and archiving networked documents from the selected set of Web sites. This system has been developed using Srce's experience in the area of Web technologies mainly through the results of the projects Web space measurement (MWP) and Digital archives for Web publications (DAMP). AMD is created using the Open Source software. It is modular, extensible, and simple to use via the Web interface.
