Greetings Utsav Welcome to the Arches forum! One source that I would recommend to learn more about how heritage inventories work (as well as about the Arches project) is the fall 2013 issue of the Getty Conservation Institute newsletter, which is focused on the theme of heritage inventories. It's online at: http://www.getty.edu/conservation/publications_resources/newsletters/28_2/

My interest in heritage blossomed from my reading of Dan Brown novels and getting to understand the deep richness of any culture. As i find out more about arches i will be asking more question about how really the inventories work practically.One of the awesome things i feel is that we can learn so much about a site by examining it's ruins and then get to know more about the ancient culture of that place. If it's possible,please do share some references about how inventories really work! And robert gatson has guided me a lot in setting up arches on my ubuntu. And it's so nice to get to know someone who has a vast trove of knowledge on culture and history.

As well as computer and IT specialists on this group you will find many members such as myself who share your passion for the past, and work in heritage organisations aimed at doing what we can to ensure that the significance for all of us of heritage sites is maintained for future generations. Do feel free to ask questions about how heritage inventories work in practice, as well as the technical questions about Arches. And of course there’s a lot more than just the Taj Mahal out there… http://asi.nic.in/asi_monu_whs.asp ( 'http://www.google.com/url?q5http%3A%2F%2Fasi.nic.in%2Fasi_monu_whs.asp6sa5D6sntz7516usg5AFQjCNEXG_lPNiLpIwq7cCKDDbxKlDI1DQ';return true;" onclick="this.href='http://www.google.com/url?q5http%3A%2F%2Fasi.nic.in%2Fasi_monu_whs.asp6sa5D6sntz7516usg5AFQjCNEXG_lPNiLpIwq7cCKDDbxKlDI1DQ';return true;" href="http://asi.nic.in/asi_monu_whs.asp"; target=_blank ) (and that’s just the World Heritage Sites).

This online group was initially set up for the project team, and has just recently been opened up as the public, so some of us haven't met before. How about we all share a bit of background, just like we would if we were meeting in the real world? If that sounds good to you, reply to this thread and share with the group some or all of the following:what is your interest in Arches? where in the world are you working? and, just to make it a bit more fun,what can you see out of the window? Is there any heritage in your view? I look forward to getting to know everyone a bit better!
