Arches provides organizations with powerful features and customization options to manage data in the cultural heritage domain and beyond. With Arches, organizations can customize how they organize data to suit their specific requirements, all the while benefiting from shared knowledge and interoperability capabilities through support of common data standards. Arches for HERs is a customization of Arches to support Heritage Environment Records in England and can be used as the starting point for heritage inventory management using Arches worldwide.

This Arches demonstration site is based on Arches for HERs, which is a customization of the Arches platform for Historic Environment Records (HERs) in the United Kingdom. It illustrates the core capabilities of Arches while also highlighting how it has been adapted for use by the Greater London Historic Environment Record (GLHER) and other HERs by Historic England, in partnership with the City of Lincoln, UK and the Getty Conservation Institute.
The Arches for HERs demo site includes a small sample of historic environment data from Greater London managed within GLHER Online. The data presented here is strictly for software evaluation purposes only. These data should not be used for research, compliance, or any purpose beyond the exploration of software features.
This demonstration uses an earlier version of Arches (v6). We are continually making enhancements to Arches features and performance and we are planning upgrades to this demonstration site. Until then, thanks for your patience!
