Wonderful to get such a detailed response from you, thanks Vincent. I've actually realised that my colleague Roshan and you were in touch about this a few years ago - here's <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!starred/archesproject/v02grD04ofc>the link to the conversation. I've now joined the team at the Zamani Project <http://www.zamaniproject.org> and really want to get us going with Arches. I recently attended the Digital Humanities conference in the Netherlands, and it seems like Arches is really gaining ground.
I've been educating myself with the documentation and am very inspired by your implementation with Global Digital Heritage! I have a few questions that I hope you can help with: - Would you advise that I become very familiar with the CDOC CRM documentation before I get started? - Because we are based at a university, am I correct that it would make more sense to install Arches on a server? - Our database is in the process of being migrated to the university's repository, and I want to make any data of ours on Arches link back to those DOIs, so that our website+Arches and our data in the university's repository all speak to each other. Does that make sense? - We want to make our raw data as well as our visualisations (3D models etc) available through Arches. We would need some kind of access control, so that viewing models is open to all guests, but access to our raw data would need registration. - Your description of how you envision our data (from your conversation with Roshan in 2017) is really useful. Would you change anything about it with regard to Zamani’s specific data and updates to Arches? I had something like this in mind, but am very open to any suggestions and insight: *Activity Resource* Describes the project in general. *i.e. Spatial documentation of temples and pagodas in Bagan, Myanmar* *Documentation/Digitization Event* More detailed, short-term documentation of the 'how' and 'when' of the sessions. There could be several events here for the same activity resource. Can be as descriptive as needed about equipment, conditions and settings. *i.e. 20-30 January 2016 - terrestrial laser scans and drone footage of Temple 1 and Pagoda 2; F+H scanner model XXX with settings XXX. Team members A, B, and C were present. * *1-5 June 2019 - more documentation events*. *Resource* Documents heritage sites, structures, buildings, etc. There could be many resources here. *i.e. Temple 1; Temple 2; Temple 99; Pagoda 1; Pagoda 2; Pagoda 99 etc. * *File set/Raw data* Datasets from acquired documentation. This lives in the university’s repository, and can be accessed with a DOI. *i.e. http://dx.doi.org/10.1037/a0028240* *File (set)* The actual 3D model gets uploaded to Arches.
