'''JHOVE''' (JSTOR/Harvard Object Validation Environment) - pronounced "jove" - is a format-specific digital object validation [[Application programming interface|API]] written in [[Java Platform, Standard Edition|Java]]. JHOVE was a joint project of [[JSTOR]] and the [[Harvard University Library]] to develop an extensible framework for format validation. The [[Open Preservation Foundation]] took over stewardship of JHOVE in February 2015.
JHOVE is currently available for downloading as version 1.
Currently supported formats are [[AIFF]], [[ASCII]], [[Bytestream]], [[GIF]], [[HTML]], [[JPEG]], [[JPEG 2000]], [[PDF]], [[TIFF]], [[UTF-8]], [[WAV]], and [[XML]]. Documents are analyzed and checked for being well-formed (consistent with the basic requirements of the format) and valid (generally signifying internal consistency). JHOVE notes when a file satisfies specific profiles within formats (e.g., PDF/X, HTML 4.0).
A successor called [https://github.com/opf-labs/jhove2 JHOVE2] is currently available; however, it has a completely separate code base, and was last updated in 2014
