[Arches] Re: Signing in

[David Osborne]

Hello all

I'm fairly new to Arches, as I've joined a small project team to set up an 
Arches installation for Jersey Heritage (Jersey is the largest of the 
Channel Islands, near the northern coast of France). My career has been in 
IT and for some time now, I've worked for Information Services in the 
University of Nottingham, so on our Arches project, I'm the technical nerd! 
I'm happiest with Linux, MacOS and open-source software, so I'm finding 
Arches fun to work with. However, my academic background is in archaeology 
and I will be going part-time from the end of September to start a PhD here 
at Nottingham, looking at diet and mobility of animals and people in 
prehistoric Lincolnshire (from the Neolithic to the Iron Age). With Lincoln 
being fairly close, the "disco_data" example data for Arches includes 
several sites I know.

As I write this from my office desk, sunshine is streaming through the 
windows and outside, I can see a landscaped garden area between two blocks 
of our buildings. No heritage to speak of, although our King's Meadow 
Campus where I'm based used to be the old Carlton TV studios, so that's 
some sort of late 20C heritage of a sort.

regards
David

Re: [Arches] linking with bibliographic database

[David Osborne]

Hi Alison

Are you aware of refbase ? Essentially, it's a 
shared bibliographic reference manager (open source, of course). If you 
could link with that, or incorporate it into what you plan to build in 
Arches, that may go some way to satisfying many requirements. There's a 
public implementation at http://www.refbase.org/

David

 Hi everyone!

 We are thinking of using Arches for our database of archaeological 
 sites and areas. One of the database fields would also contain 
 bibliographic references. To avoid using plain text as the field type, is 
 there a way of linking an online bibliographic database system (such as 
 Zotero or Mendeley) with an Arches-based database? If so, which system 
 would be best to use for such linking?

 Thanks!

[Arches] Re: Signing in

[David Osborne]

Hi Ed

Thanks for the welcome! We're at an early stage with our project at the 
moment, so haven't yet met with any issues but I'm sure I'll raise them 
here if/when they arise. So far, we've been setting up Arches 4.0 on a 
MacBook under MacOS (Sierra 10.12.6) using the Lincoln data for 
demonstration to interested parties, which I've repeated on my own MacBook 
as well as in Ubuntu 16.04 running in VMware Fusion. I'll be setting up the 
production system in a cloud service using Linux.

I'm starting to consider Arches for my PhD data. I'm planning to set up a 
database of isotope data and fortunately, Postgres is my preferred 
software. I'll also be incorporating GIS and R for statistical analysis, so 
Arches would tick at least some of those boxes.

regards
David

[Arches] Choosing a cloud service for Arches

[David Osborne]

Does anyone using a cloud implementation of Arches have recommendations for 
choosing a provider? For our project, I'm considering Amazon AWS, Google's 
Cloud Platform and Microsoft Azure. This is a new installation, so there 
are no legacy systems to be considered. In the past, I've read about AWS 
but I don't yet know very much about Google's offering. At the university 
where I work, we're starting to deploy some new services in Azure, so I've 
had a little more exposure to that and it does seem to offer some useful 
services, with PostgreSQL as a supported database, for example. However, my 
work on Arches is not related to the university.

How do the costs compare for the three providers? Similarly, how are they 
for support? I'll be grateful for any comments.

Thanks
David

[Arches] Problems installing disco_data on Ubuntu 16.04

[David Osborne]

I'm running through setting up Arches 4.0.1 on Ubuntu 16.04 on my MacBook 
under Vagrant, before setting up a server on AWS. I think I've got Arches 
and its pre-requisite packages installed correctly and I wanted to install 
the disco_data package as test data to verify that my Arches installation 
is correct. However, the load_data.sh script starts producing error 
messages just after the database migrations and more errors occur later. 
The first error claims that the "is_required" column doesn't exist in the 
nodes table, although connecting later via psql, I can see that the column 
is present. I've made several attempts to get disco_data installed but all 
with the same results, so I don't know where to look next to fix this.

Are there any standard test procedures to verify that Arches is correctly 
installed, other than using disco_data?

The result of running the load_data.sh script is 
at https://gist.github.com/daosborne/21997d901cd872fc5e3126c1197e5c9b, if 
anyone can suggest where the cause of my problem may lie.

Thanks,
David

Thanks, Ryan, that's very encouraging. I thought I'd used *git fetch* to

Re: [Arches] Problems installing disco_data on Ubuntu 16.04

[David Osborne]

After downloading a zip archive of the repo, the installation was more 
successful this time (
https://gist.github.com/daosborne/e65d6fb2b3601796af3bbb324d29bbe3). 
However, several import errors were reported and the resource_import.log 
file contained 30,188 lines like
Sat Nov 11 10:49:54 2017 ERROR: Relation not created, either zero or 
multiple resources found with legacyid: 6a535ad3-2cc7-422b-aae5-9b4ab5a6c1a7
so I suspect I may be missing some data.

I also have the problem that after starting up the Django server, 
attempting to save the Mapbox key in the system settings just produces the 
rotating dots on the screen and nothing further happens.

Maybe I need to check the installation of Arches and its dependencies?

[Arches] Adapting the Lincoln HER reference data and resource models

[David Osborne]

I am working on setting up a new HER installation and would like to model 
it, more or less, on the structures used by Lincoln in the demo data. Some 
of the reference data, such as building periods and archaeological periods, 
need to be supplemented, extended or replaced, so I have worked out how to 
construct a thesaurus from a directory of CSV files, using the 
add_uuid_to_csvs and thesaurus_from_csvs utilities from Adam's Github repo 
*fpan-data* which he mentioned on the forum in September. However, when 
trying to judiciously add to that only some of the Lincoln reference data 
CSVs (and ignoring those from the DISCO project), I must have missed some 
crucial steps: if I try download the mapping for the Assets resource model, 
my Assets_concepts.json file says that each concept such as *Style* or 
*External 
Identifier Type* "does not appear to be configured with a valid concept 
collectionid". My problem is that I realise I don't yet fully understand 
the inter-relationships between all the parts of the reference data.

What would be the simplest course of action to load our relatively small 
initial set of HER data (only 205 sites/buildings), to have it ready for an 
important demo in just over two weeks' time? At present, I'm thinking: load 
the DISCO_data package; delete all the resources from the database via the 
command-line; delete all the DISCO reference data/models via the web 
interface; then load our data from CSV, with appropriate fields edited to 
use the uuids of the relevant concepts.

Can I safely delete anything relating to the DISCO project without 
affecting the HER structures?

It would be nice to use our thesaurus, if it's just a simple matter of 
referring to its uuids for items such as building type instead of the 
nearest Lincoln equivalent, or is more work needed to make the thesaurus 
usable than generating the XML file using Adam's *fpan-data* utilities 
mentioned above? At a pinch, we could just use the Lincoln terms for now 
and move to using our thesaurus later: it's essential to have something 
working by the end of the month which resembles the Lincoln demo but 
displays our data instead!

Any suggestions welcome. I can upload some files I'm using, if that would 
help, just let me know what would be useful to see.

Thanks in advance,
David

[Arches] Re: Problems upgrading Arches 4.0.1 to 4.1.0 due to missing modules

[David Osborne]

I may have found a solution to this myself. After searching for *jose* on 
the Python package index, I found *python-jose* as an alternative which 
seemed to have the missing *jws* name needed for an import.

I therefore ran
pip uninstall jose
pip install python-jose
and my python manage.py migrate then produced an error message relating to 
the database contents, instead of reporting a missing module:

django.db.migrations.exceptions.NodeNotFoundError: Migration 
models.0010_4_1_0 dependencies reference nonexistent parent node (u'auth', 
u'0008_alter_user_username_max_length')

(Full details in the gist at 
https://gist.github.com/daosborne/24a698df329f097b0e683fe89da20d69)

Might this sort of database migration error be expected and is it serious? 
The database works well with 4.0.1

TL;DR
To recap for anyone else with missing modules after doing an upgrade from 
4.0.1 to 4.1.0, try
pip install django-recaptcha
pip install python-jose
which (almost) worked for me (your mileage may vary).

Re: [Arches] Re: Problems upgrading Arches 4.0.1 to 4.1.0 due to missing modules

[David Osborne]

Hi Adam

On a clone of my 4.0.1 VM, running

pip install arches --upgrade --no-binary :all:

worked: no missing modules and the database migration step completed with 
no errors, so thanks for your advice.

However, although the web interface displays OK as before (I'm serving it 
via Apache), clicking *Search* just gives the "spinning balls" in the 
centre of the page, instead of the map showing the asset locations. I'll 
try to get some diagnostics out of Postgres to see what's happening.

cheers

[Arches] Problems upgrading Arches 4.0.1 to 4.1.0 due to missing modules

[David Osborne]

I have a working Arches 4.0.1 installation in a Vagrant VM which I want to 
upgrade to 4.1.0, to check the process in advance of upgrading our project 
server.

Following the upgrade instructions in 
https://github.com/archesproject/arches/blob/master/docs/releases/4.1.0.md, 
I get an error at the step 

python manage.py migrate due to the captcha module not being installed:

(ENV) vagrant@vagrant:~/Projects/my_project$ python manage.py migrate
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "manage.py", line 29, in 
execute_from_command_line(sys.argv)

ImportError: No module named captcha


I then attempted variously to install, in turn, the captcha, 
django-simple-captcha and django-recaptcha modules, finally sticking with 
django-recaptcha,
which required a module "jose" but that eventually had a missing "jws" name it 
couldn't find, and at that point I gave up and decided to shout "Help!"

There's a log of all this at 
https://gist.github.com/daosborne/d867f8a2a457aa7b7652cb9432e0321d
beginning and ending with "pip list" to show the modules which were installed.

I'm sure there will be a simple solution!

[Arches] Re: Error after changing map search area

[David Osborne]

Hi Alexei

Thank you, that worked perfectly. I edited the file, recompiled the .pyc 
and restarted Apache to pick it up and we have a working website again.

We were planning to upgrade to 4.4.1 but we can wait until a permanent fix 
is developed.

Many thanks,
David

[Arches] Error after changing map search area

[David Osborne]

We're seeing an error on our Arches 4.3.3 installation on an Ubuntu 16.04 
server, following an attempt by a colleague to update the map search 
rectangle in the admin Settings web interface.

When connecting to our Apache2 service, we now get the following error


TypeError at / 

'NoneType' object has no attribute '__getitem__'

Request Method: GET 
Request URL: http://her.jerseyheritage.org/ 
Django Version: 1.11.15 
Exception Type: TypeError 
Exception Value: 

'NoneType' object has no attribute '__getitem__'

Exception Location: 
/home/ubuntu/Projects/ENV/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/arches/app/utils/context_processors.py
 
in map_info, line 43 
Python Executable: /home/ubuntu/Projects/ENV/bin/python 
Python Version: 2.7.12 
Python Path: 

['/home/ubuntu/Projects/jersey_her',
 '/home/ubuntu/Projects/ENV/lib/python2.7',
 '/home/ubuntu/Projects/ENV/lib/python2.7/plat-x86_64-linux-gnu',

 '/home/ubuntu/Projects/ENV/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages',
 '/home/ubuntu/Projects/ENV/lib/python2.7/site-packages',
 '/home/ubuntu/Projects/jersey_her/jersey_her']


The Python traceback is in an attachment. The error in 
context_processors.py is in code which seems related to the search 
rectangle, as if Arches thinks the settings have been made but the values 
have been lost, whether in a file, or stored in the database, I don't know. 
Because of the error, we're unable to get into the Arches web interface to 
change the settings. I'm reluctant to reinstall everything so I'm hoping 
someone can suggest a manual reset.

Thanks
David

Thanks for the suggestions, Cyrus. I'll have a look at the code and see 
what I can do.

[Arches] Search results missing from map in Arches 4.4.2

[David Osborne]

I have updated a clone of our Arches 4.3.3 (Ubuntu 16.04) AWS server to 
Arches 4.4.2 and Ubuntu 18.04, using Arches 4.4.1 as an intermediate step, 
as recommended.

Everything worked correctly in the 4.4.1 version before upgrading to 4.4.2, 
as it does on the 4.3.3 original. However, after upgrading, the search 
results icons and their clusters are missing from the default map. The 
search markers for the sites listed in the sidebar are displayed, however. 
I have checked that the search results overlay and the map layers for the 
individual resources are enabled and that the transparency sliders are 
fully to the right. The map for a resource record report does show the 
correct marker for the resource, it's just that the location icons for the 
resources are not appearing on the overview map.

I'd welcome any suggestions for what I've missed or how to restore the 
search results.

Many thanks
David

Hi Cyrus

No, I hadn't checked the web console in the developer window. When I enable 
that, I get a large number of errors, of which the first few are

evented.js:136 
Error {status: 500, url:

...and so on.

Partially expanding the first of these (I don't know if this gives enough

I'm guessing this is something related to TileStache generating the layer

Hi Dennis

Yes, the search results overlay was one of the first things I checked: it's 
enabled, with the transparency slider to the right.

[Arches] Re: Search results missing from map in Arches 4.4.2

[David Osborne]

It occurred to me that the map markers may be drawn using Javascript, so 
clutching at straws, I checked yarn. Although yarn install tells me

yarn install v1.6.0
warning package.json: No license field
warning arches: No license field
[1/4] Resolving packages...
success Already up-to-date.
Done in 0.44s.


which suggests no JS packages are missing, yarn check, on the other hand, 
gives a long list of files which are not installed, beginning with

yarn check v1.6.0
warning package.json: No license field
warning arches: No license field
error "@turf/area" not installed
error "@turf/bbox" not installed
error "@turf/center" not installed
error "@turf/explode" not installed
error "@turf/helpers" not installed
error "@turf/inside" not installed
error "@turf/invariant" not installed
error "@turf/meta" not installed


(full list in the attachment).

I get a similar list from our working 4.3 server, so I doubt this is the 
cause of my problem of missing search result icons.

Re: [Arches] Problem loading overlay maps

[David Osborne]

Hi Adam

When the background colour is changed, all we see is that colour: no map.

Dennis replied to me off-list to suggest that we're not seeing the maps 
because the coordinate system for the GeoTIFFs is not Web Mercator 
(EPSG:3857) which Arches uses and that we should re-project them. That 
seems the most likely cause, so I'm working on that now. Dennis gave a link 
to an entry on Farallon's blog, the existence of which I wasn't aware, so 
I'll add it here in case it's useful to others:

http://fargeo.com/blog/integrate-historic-maps-and-aerial-imagery-arches-v4/

That solution uses QGIS but in a command-line environment, I'm 
experimenting with using gdalwarp, which I assume is what QGIS will use 
behind the scenes.

Thanks for the recommendation for Geoserver: are you saying that's the only 
way to use tiled maps in conjunction with Arches?

Cheers
David

[Arches] Problem loading overlay maps

[David Osborne]

Hi all

We need to load some overlay maps for our project and have so far been 
unsuccessful. I'm following the instructions at 
https://arches.readthedocs.io/en/stable/creating-new-map-layers/#tileserver-mapnik-layers
 to 
try to load a couple of georeferenced TIFF files. The maps load 
successfully in QGIS, so we have confidence that they are correctly 
georeferenced. 

Adapting the XML shown on that page, I have the following for one of the 
maps:


  
raster

  gdal
  /home/ubuntu/Maps/Jersey_25K_BGS_Geology.tif
  0

  
  

  
  

  


which is loaded using the command

python manage.py packages -o add_tileserver_layer -m 
"/home/ubuntu/Maps/Jersey_25K_BGS_Geology.xml" -n "Geology"

The layer name Geology then appears in the list of overlays but nothing 
appears when the layer is enabled.

I have tried adding projection parameters to the opening Map tag



and these are correct, as far as we can tell. If we change the 
background-color parameter to "white" or "black", the layer colour changes 
as expected.

These maps are complete in one file but we do have another map which is 
tiled in separate files: would we need to use a separate tile-server to use 
that?

I expect we've missed something simple but any help or advice would be 
appreciated!

Thanks
David

[Arches] Re: Programmatic management of resources?

[David Osborne]

Hi Alexei

Thank you for the details. I should have asked about doing this using SQL, 
which seems the more obvious way of doing it but I had looked at the 
database structure and couldn't see how it related to the data models. Is 
there anything for developers such as an entity relationship diagram for 
the database, to explain how to query it?
I'll try your SQL and proceed with caution (and backups!) when I get to 
deletions.

Cheers
David

Re: [Arches] Map search

[David Osborne]

Hi Cyrus

I'm finally revisiting our need for a new gazetteer service to replace the 
Mapbox one. I have an instance of Gisgraphy running in a Docker container 
but although I took your 'even easier' approach by modifying a local copy 
of the mapbox.js geocoder, I can't seem to override Arches using the Mapbox 
service. Is there something I need to do to make that local copy take 
effect?

Re: [Arches] Map search

Supplementary question: as the geocoder access is from a fragment of 
Javascript, I take it that the connection to the geocoder is from a user's 
browser, rather than from the Arches application itself?

[Arches] Re: Updated Arches Roadmap - What's new in 2020?

[David Osborne]

Hi Alison

Thanks for your reply and explaining the background to the Arches/Arc 
integration project. We will all have our own priorities so my comments 
were not meant to be unappreciative of the development. I applaud Historic 
England for helping to fund the initiative, particularly if it helps to 
enable integration with other software such as QGIS!

Best wishes
David

Re: [Arches] Map search

[David Osborne]

Thanks for reminding me of your ESRI geocoder, Andrew. I've got it working 
with our Arches installation and can use it as the basis for getting ours 
working.

One thing that caught me out is to remember, if using Apache to serve web 
resources, to copy the Javascript component into the appropriate location 
in the static web directory tree.

[Arches] Arches 5.0 Docker setup problems

[David Osborne]

I need a new Arches installation to develop some stuff for a conference 
presentation, so I thought I'd take the opportunity to not only use the 
latest version but also run it under Docker.

Following the instructions at 
https://github.com/archesproject/arches/blob/master/docker/Readme.md, I got 
as far as Quick Start step 6, docker-compose up, but there were problems 
creating the database for my *archesdemo* project.

I've uploaded my docker-compose.yml file and the results of running 
docker-compose 
up into a gist at 
https://gist.github.com/daosborne/cd501c56dc117e066b4f118f15af7e57 to show 
the problem. Is it obvious what I've missed or is wrong?

I'm running Docker Desktop 2.2.0.3 on MacOS 10.14.6 Mojave.

Thanks!
David

[Arches] Re: Programmatic management of resources?

[David Osborne]

Thanks to everyone who posted suggestions to help with our problem of 
duplications. In the end, we simply deleted the few duplicate resource 
records using the web user interface: there weren't as many duplicates as I 
first thought.

That left the duplicate resource-to-resource link records, of which we had 
over 15,000. Once I found that these are contained in the 
resource_x_resource database table, I checked them using the following SQL

SELECT resourceinstanceidfrom, resourceinstanceidto, COUNT(*)
FROM resource_x_resource
GROUP BY resourceinstanceidfrom, resourceinstanceidto
ORDER BY resourceinstanceidfrom, resourceinstanceidto;

and deleted the duplicates using

DELETE FROM resource_x_resource
WHERE resourcexid IN (
SELECT A.resourcexid
  FROM resource_x_resource A
 WHERE EXISTS (SELECT B.resourcexid
 FROM resource_x_resource B
WHERE B.resourceinstanceidfrom = A.resourceinstanceidfrom
  AND B.resourceinstanceidto = A.resourceinstanceidto
  AND B.resourcexid < A.resourcexid));

Having noticed that the relationshiptype field is simply text, I replaced 
all the incorrect ----0007 values with an 
appropriate CIDOC CRM property

UPDATE resource_x_resource SET relationshiptype = 
'http://www.cidoc-crm.org/cidoc-crm/P67_refers_to' WHERE relationshiptype=
'----0007';

Finally, a run of
python manage.py es index_resource_relations
made those changes visible in the resource reports in the user interface.

[Arches] Programmatic management of resources?

[David Osborne]

It seems I've inadvertently duplicated some resource records by 
accidentally assigning them new uuids before loading from CSVs, so instead 
of overwriting existing records, duplicates were created.

I was wondering if anyone had developed any 'grep'-like command-line 
utilities that perhaps returned uuids for resources where, say, a node 
contains a particular value? If there were also a command to delete 
resources given their uuid, that would help to remove the duplicate 
records. If nothing like this exists, is there existing Python code in the 
codebase which would make a good starting point? We're still on Arches 
4.4.2.

A related question is whether it's possible to delete resource-to-resource 
relationship records? They can obviously be loaded from CSV but there's 
nothing documented which can remove them. What happens to these links when 
one or more of the associated resource records are deleted?

Finally, I've always been puzzled that in our resource reports, related 
resources are followed by the uuid for the relationship 
(----0007), rather than the CIDOC-CRM property 
phrase ("is-related-to"or "refers-to", I forget which), although I see that 
Lincoln's Arcade has the almost equally obscure URL for CRM property P67.

Cheers
David

[Arches] Re: Updated Arches Roadmap - What's new in 2020?

[David Osborne]

Hi Alina

The developments in the roadmap look interesting, especially, for me, the 
science applications. However, I must admit disappointment that ArcGIS has 
been chosen in preference to QGIS for the GIS interface. I expect there 
will be several projects which were attracted to Arches due to it being 
free, open-source software and, like ours, have opted for QGIS for the same 
reason. However, my hope is that, once the team have developed the Arches 
plugin for Arc, it will be possible to adapt it to interface with QGIS 
without too much extra work.

Kind regards
David

[Arches] Arches HER for Jersey Heritage goes live

[David Osborne]

On behalf of the project team, I am delighted to announce the launch of the 
Historic Environment Record for Jersey Heritage. The culmination of a 
three-year development, the HER contains details of 5,137 historic 
buildings and archaeological sites, and 206 records of finds on the island 
of Jersey, together with information on related survey activities, archives 
and bibliographic data.

The project was managed by Dr Peter Chowne, in collaboration with Roger 
Hills and Georgia Robinson of Jersey Heritage, while I provided technical 
advice and implementation. On the subject of support, I’d like to record my 
thanks to all those at Farallon, particularly Alexei, Dennis and Cyrus and 
other forum users, particularly Adam Cox, who answered my many questions 
and helped us to get this service up and running. I couldn’t have done it 
without you!

Hosted in a virtual server on Amazon Web Services (AWS), running Ubuntu 
16.04, the HER uses Arches version 4.4.2. It is accessible at the URL

https://her.jerseyheritage.org

Re: [Arches] Arches HER for Jersey Heritage goes live

[David Osborne]

Hi Sara

Our launch plan was small in scale, limited to getting feedback from staff
within Jersey Heritage, which informed on usability issues. Roger Hills,
who led the JH side of the project, organised that and collated the
feedback from his colleagues. I was going to ask why you were not moving to
v5 but in our project, we held back from migrating to the latest version,
which appeared very late in our timescale and the work in moving from v4 to
5 would have delayed our launch and added to costs.

I must say that historicplacesla.org was one of our benchmarks when we were
starting our Arches journey, so I'll be interested to see its new
incarnation in its v4 guise! Good luck with your 'go live'.

Best wishes
David

[Arches] Controlling order of indexing of resource types for Elasticsearch?

[David Osborne]

I needed to re-index our database and now the search results sidebar on the 
left of the search page shows the Information resources first. Is it 
possible to have the Heritage Assets listed first? Running python manage.py 
es index_resources the Information resources are processed before Activity 
and Heritage Asset resources, 

In 
~/Projects/ENV/lib/python2.7/site-packages/arches/app/utils/index_database.py, 
which is untimately called from python manage.py es index_resources, 
there's a function index_resources_by_type which could be used to index 
resources in a desired order but there's no obvious way to invoke it.

Re: [Arches] Re: Controlling order of indexing of resource types for Elasticsearch?

[David Osborne]

Hi Alexei

Thank you, that worked! I first tried re-indexing the Heritage Assets, the 
resource we wanted to appear in the search results panel. That had no 
effect, so I tried in turn the Activity and Information resources and it 
was after re-indexing the Information resources that the Heritage Assets 
now appear in the search results.

Hope you and everyone in the Arches community are staying safe and well.

Best wishes
David

Re: [Arches] Map search

[David Osborne]

Hi Andrew

The ESRI geocoder does what exactly we need and is fast at finding results 
after I added the countryCode parameter to the Javascript, so thank you for 
mentioning it.

After a search, we get a red filled circle marking the point. I can't find 
where the styling of the marker is defined: is it possible to change it? At 
the moment, it's difficult to distinguish the geocoder marker from the 
sites in our Heritage Assets overlay, which are almost the same colour and 
size.

[Arches] Stopping couchdb if Arches Collector is not being used

[David Osborne]

In our Arches 4.4.2 installation, Couchdb is running, although we're not 
using the Arches Collector. Will Arches have a problem if I stop the 
Couchdb processes? top sometimes shows the beam.smp process as using CPU 
and memory and I'd like to minimise their use by unnecessary processes.

[Arches] Arches 5.1 – ESRI ArcGIS data and DISCO

[David Osborne]

I have been away from the Arches arena for almost a year, after finishing 
the implementation for Jersey Heritage, while I concentrated on my research.

I'm now looking at using Arches for my research data, so I was wondering 
what the current state of play is for using ArcGIS info. I have some 
geochemistry data I would like to install as a map overlay (the file 
extensions are .cpg, .dbf, .prj, .sbn, .sbx, .shp, .shp.xml and .shx). Is 
there a how-to anywhere to describe how to import this?

I will also be generating some scientific analysis data I would like to 
incorporate and the DISCO package might be a good way to do that – is it 
available to use yet?

I've just set up Arches 5.1 in an Ubuntu 18.04 VM.

Thanks for any words of wisdom!

[Arches] Re: Export Search Sort

[David Osborne]

Hi Jelena & Annabel,

Although I haven't used it, csvkit looks suitable for reordering/selecting 
columns:

csvcut -c column_c,column_a data.csv > new.csv

In the documentation (https://csvkit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/), the 
examples are all Unix/Linux shell commands but it's a Python tool installed 
using pip, so you already have the pre-requisites with your Arches 
installation.

Cheers,
David

Hi Dennis,

Thanks, that's very useful. I should be able to load my ArcGIS data into

I'm looking forward to seeing how DISCO develops, thanks for the link.
