Hi Sindhu, I can give you a bit more detail on the Spatio-Temporal relationships idea for Arches.
There are really two ways to think about spatial and temporal data in Arches. One way is to consider how time affects the interpretation of cultural heritage. For example, periods (like the neolithic) are expressed as "years before present". But the neolithic period has different "time before present" values depending on where you are (e.g.: England vs. Greece vs. Australia). So there is a spatial component to the concept of periods. And this relationship could be incorporated into Arches graphs and thesauri. A second way to think about spatio-temporal relationships is to consider how they could be used to enhance filtering an Arches database for records. Perhaps there is a way to better query an Arches database (and improve the search UI) by implementing better temporal filtering of resources. The first (graph-based) way is pretty theoretical, and would be best suited for some one interested in working closely with the CIDOC CRM and resource graphs. The second idea is much more practical, as it would focus on enhancing how users query Arches to find specific records. Hope this provides some guidance for you and your proposal.
