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.

  Loris and Dino, 5th year students at Polytech Montpellier, decided to work on a new version of the Grottocenter Mobile application for their project. At the end of February you will be able to use it in French or English, take photos and view the documents associated with the entries, and make sketches. We also hope that they will be able to offer a version for IOS.  

Easily download all data from Grottocenter

  Vincent has just set up a service that makes it easy to download all Grottocenter data.   This takes the form of a compressed file which contains a json file per type of data (inputs, cavities, organizations, massifs, documents). The update is carried out once a month.   This service is accessible to members of the Wikicaves association and partner organizations. If you are interested in this service, do not hesitate to contact us .
