Arches

Arches is an open source immovable cultural heritage inventory platform that was built from the ground up using the CIDOC Conceptual Reference Model as the framework for its overall data structure. Arches is designed to take advantage of the CIDOC CRM's approach to create meaningful data relationships between heritage resources and groups, activities, actors, events, and information media
