Happy New Year for 2020

 Hello,

We are sending you this message, first of all , to wish you a Happy New Year for 2020 and to present the new features of the latest version of Grottocenter ( under development  at http://beta.grottocenter.org/ )
So what’s new this year ?
    You can now view and search the BBS data (Speleological Bibliographic Bulletin): that’s 111,134 documents available to you .
    Access  to data via  maps has already been available for a few months.
    The V2 coordinate conversion tool from Grottocenter has been transposed to V3.
    You can now download data in csv format

If you think the Grottocenter/Wikicaves project is worth supporting , give us a hand ;-)
We need people like you to translate, take part in development, promote the project, or enter data and information provided  by our partners. Work is still underway to define the Grottocenter V3 user interface. If you wish to contribute, or simply give us some feedback , then make sure you contact us.
You may  also take part and support the project by becoming a member of the Wikicaves association ( that’s a 10 € fee only )  .
 Wikicaves has done some major work in the new version of Grottocenter V3 to reduce the amount personal data used. You can easily access your personal data by logging into http://www.grottocenter.org and then clicking on the “My Settings” menu.

The whole Grottocenter  team (http://www.grottocenter.org) wishes you some great caving and  exploring and hopes you will take the opportunity to share them with the caving community through our project.

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
