RE: [Arches] Re: Signing in
Hello Akshay and welcome to the Arches project forum! Thank you for sharing this information about your background, skills and interests. You will find on this group many colleagues working around the world in specialist technical fields, both in programming and in heritage. Do use this group to ask questions and explore your ideas further, and to suggest ideas and fixes for problems that other members post about. There’s much more information on the project website, for example at http://archesproject.org/development/ . Do have a look around. The view from your window sounds beautiful – calm and peaceful. Thank you again, Edmund From: archesproject@googlegroups.com [mailto:archesproject@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Akshay Upadhyay Sent: 07 March 2014 21:22 To: archesproject@googlegroups.com Subject: [Arches] Re: Signing in Hello, I am Akshay Upadhyay, pursuing Master degree(M.Tech) in Spatial Information Technology from DAVV university, India, Madhya Pradesh(state) and am fascinated by GIS and MAPs working, as it is said “a picture is worth a thousand words”. I have an experience working with Shapefile, Kml, GeoJSON, QGIS and with other GIS tools. Please see the link of my project i.e Shapefile to SVG Maphttp://www.cprogramto.com/svgmap/, which reads shapefile information i.e from shp and dbf file and converts and display the same as an SVG vector Map. * what is your interest in Arches? --- Arches project being an open source, comes up with an unique idea to bring Heritage inventory and management system digitally where we need to deal with location and its attribute values properly. Widely used Shapefile is one of the non topological gis vector file. As I have a good experience dealing with shapefile byte by byte, i want to accomplish and work for Workflow for Uploading GIS Shapefiles project by joining in through the Google Summer of Code. * where in the world are you working? --- INDIA, Indore, Madhya Pradesh. * what can you see out of the window? Is there any heritage in your view? --- I am seeing a garden, with a small temple placed in center of it where i can hear and feel temple bell sound. Looking forward to have a good time here.

[Arches] We are now in GSoC Student Application period.
Just so everyone knows: We are now in the Google Summer of Code student application period, which ends March 21st at 19:00 UTC. See the GSoC 2014 home page: https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2014 When they're ready, students should apply using the mechanism described in the FAQ: https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/document/show/gsoc_program/google/gsoc2014/help_page For example, see the questions How does a student apply? and What should a student proposal look like?. The FAQ also has answers to other common questions, such as whether two students' individual applications to work on the same idea could be accepted (yes), or whether a student can submit multiple different proposals (also yes). I see many students here already interacting with the project's developers to figure out their proposals -- that is great, and is exactly how this is supposed to work. Please continue doing that :-). There's no need to rush an application; the deadline is still eleven days away. And by the way, Arches developers: it is still okay to come up with new ideas. The Ideas List does not need to be static. If recent discussions lead you to think of some new potential GSoC projects, that's fine. Post them to the mailing list and hone them. In fact, it's not even essential that they ever get on the Ideas List web page, though of course we'd try to put them up there for reference soon. In any case, a student can still apply to work on such an idea even before it is on the Ideas List page -- their application can just refer to the mailing list thread where the idea is being discussed.

[Arches] Proposal guidelines for GSoC participants
Here are some general things we're looking for in a proposal. 1. The participant should provide a brief summary of their background and qualifications 2. The participant needs to demonstrate that they have a good understanding of the project they are interested in working on 3. The participant's proposed solution should be clear and concise. The participant is welcome to provide code samples or mockups as needed to help define your solution. Note: anyone considering working with someone else on a project should keep in mind that we may only be allotted one participant to work with. If that happens it will make it difficult or impossible to be selected to participate in the Arches GSoC project this year. -- -- To post, send email to archesproject@googlegroups.com.

Re: [Arches] Re: Handling complex geometries - maybe 3D?
Hi Utsav, I really appreciate your enthusiasm for the Arches project, unfortunately I'm not quite sure I understand your proposal clearly. Earlier it sounded like you wanted to add a new prehistoric monument, but we're not really looking to collect data as part of the GSoC. Our focus is on improving the code base with additional functionality.

Re: [Arches] GSoC 2014 - Application Logging
Hi Rakshit, To quickly answer your questions: 1. If you feel like the Application Logging project is too small you are free to combine it with something else. Feel free to propose what you think is achievable. 2. You can provide a self structured proposal. You can find some basic guidelines here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/archesproject/6YJWRRy3iQM 3. You can provide code or pseudo-code. Whatever you think demonstrates your solution best.

I'll be going for PhD at UCSC starting Fall 2014. Therefore I'm eligible for GSoC 2014 and fortunately have the best available time to participate. I have been working on research projects since around 3 years now and I have been the primary author for the associated research publications as well. My research has been primarily in the field of ICT4D and I design the entire technical layout of those systems. Therefore, I have a lot of development experience along with system architecture design. Professionally, I have worked as a Database Administrator for the past 1.5 year. My job completes this month and I'll be completely available for GSoC this summer. Working in ICT4D, I've particularly enjoyed the application of ICT systems in almost any field. I got to know about Arches project through the organization list this year only. I really liked the work in this project and was glad to know something like this exists. Regarding my GSoC application, given my interests, knowledge and experience, project titled Application Logging seems very good. As mentioned on the site, at present there is very little logging in Arches. I think I can improve it a lot over this summer. I am most comfortable with Python for programming and I have good Django development experience. Rest everything I can learn before project start. I'll be applying for this project at GSoC 2014. There are few things I would want to discuss before preparing my final proposal. 1. As per the mentors, will Application logging project alone suffice for the expected size from a GSoC project? If not, then I'll try to link two related projects. 2. Am I expected to submit a structured Use-case in some specific format for the proposal or I can provide a self-structured detailed proposal? 3. Do I have to provide some initial code describing a small module of my expected implementation or explained procedures will do? It'd be really helpful if I could get some assistance on these doubts and proceed with proposal preparation.

Hello everyone! I'm Virginia Gresham, a student at Connecticut College pursuing a degree in Computer Science. Even though I just started coding eight months ago I already know Python and currently am learning Java. I am really excited about Arches interdisciplinary mission to link heritage and technology. Over the past few years, I helped my town develop a cultural heritage walking tour through our downtown while also being the captain of my high school’s robotics team. Now that I am in college, I am looking to continue pursuing both my passions for progress while examining the past. I learned about Arches through Google's Summer of Code and I am interested in working on the import and export improvements project. Outside my window is a quintessential New England town, which actually has one of the highest concentrations of colonial homes and the largest continuous town green in all of New England.

[Arches] Re: GSoC 2014: Topic 12
Meanwhile, when you mention uploading data, what kind of data do your refer to, please? I am wondering to incorporate the social media data of users to Arches. I am currently working on representing and analyzing the location-based social media data in GIS. I think the data which users generated in different social media, e.g., Facebook, can be good sources, because: - Facebook has huge users - People provide extensive information on Facebook, including semantic comments, spatial locations and photos - Some data has a standard format to export/ import, e.g., open graph It is also possible to connect the Facebook account for Arches. I have established a website to extract the locations of posts for Facebook users: http://geosocialevents.appspot.com/, and wish this can be helpful to enrich the database and attract more users for Arches.
