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 Map* <http://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. *Thanks and Regards,* *Akshay Upadhyay * *www.cprogramto.com* <http://www.cprogramto.com> On Wednesday, 13 March 2013 15:59:01 UTC+5:30, Edmund Lee wrote: > > Hello all, ... and welcome in particular to those who have joined the > Arches Discussion Forum recently. > > This online group was initially set up for the project team, and has just > recently been opened up as the public, so some of us haven't met before. > How about we all share a bit of background, just like we would if we were > meeting in the real world?
