I contribute to GrottoCenter #5: Vahid Ashrafi

I think that Grotto Center is going to make a part of caving history. 




 When I saw that you have gathered information and data of more than 37000 caves, 500 groups and 2000 cavers, I was interested to be a part of this history and valuable work. I saw also there is no much data about Iran's caves in the Grotto Center. So, I decided to contribute and share my information to present my country. There is more than 2000 explored caves in Iran that you can find some of them in Michael Laumanns' books and there is also many unexplored regions in my country.

The UIS Symbols

The International Union of Speleology has been working for several decades to propose standardized symbols that can be used to describe surface phenomena, to make plans of caves and artificial cavities and recently to ensure the conservation of the underground environment. Work has just been done to provide access to all this information at a single address https://ontology.uis-speleo.org/symbols/ Each symbol has its own URL and can be accompanied by detailed information
