Dear Annabel,

I realised I hadn't replied to this, but I just wanted to thank you for you 
reply. All worked out, except for the basemap zoom problem, which only got 
solved by the upgrade to version 5.

Best,
Robin

Hello Robin,

First of all welcome to the Arches community!

In regards to your first issue, I'd like to direct you to this forum 
thread: 
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/archesproject/resource$20descriptors%7Csort:date/archesproject/zrG_hBA17yE/AjKo8QKHAQAJ
 While 
this is referring to an implementation of Arches v4, the Resource 
Descriptor function in v5 will still help you in defining what nodes carry 
the display name and display descriptions for each of your resource models.

In regards to modeling in general, I wanted to let you know that members of 
the Arches team and community are working on providing more documentation 
and tools to help Arches implementors, like yourself, create or leverage 
existing CIDOC CRM-compliant resource models to serve their individual use 
cases. We are hoping on making this available within the next couple 
months. In addition, Part 3 of the Intro the Arches Platform webinar series 
will have a basic overview of the modeling process as well as an 
introduction to the documentation and tools that I just mentioned. This 
webinar will take place at some point in the spring. In the meantime, the 
past webinars might interest you: https://www.archesproject.org/videos/

In regards to your issue regarding the basemap default zoom area, I 
personally don't have an answer, but hope that someone else will chime in 
in regards to that soon.

Thanks!

Annabel
The Arches team
