Enterity Develops Dharma for History
10/03/2004Enterity, a mid-market web content management provider located in the 9th Square District of New Haven, today announced the immediate availability of Dharma: Structures, one component of the Dharma product line, Enterity's contemporary suite of web-based tools designed to manage and publish historic resource information via the World Wide Web.
"With a long-standing commitment to the preservation of historic resources, Enterity is now offering an unprecedented level of convenience, simplicity and value to history and preservation-based organizations with the introduction of the Dharma product line," states Jonathan Biebesheimer, CEO of Enterity.
Dharma: Structures is the first web-based archive management solution designed specifically to empower communities, municipalities or preservation professionals with the ability to manage, share and publish historic structures information on the World Wide Web. With Dharma: Structures, a community's entire inventory of historic buildings and structures may be browsed or searched by the public 24/7 via the Web, with access to all information included in the state's standardized Historic Resource Inventory survey, structure designations, optional digital photos for each structure and more. Administration of information is done entirely via the Web through a secure Web browser-based interface, allowing designated non-technical personnel to maintain information anywhere, any time, with very little training and with no special computer hardware required.
"Identifying historic resources and making information about them publicly accessible are two fundamental and critical first steps in preservation," indicates Helen Higgins, Executive Director of the Connecticut Trust for Historic Preservation. "Enterity's focused solutions offer a tremendous benefit and value to this cause."
Tools in the Dharma suite are based on, and integrate easily with other web content management solutions developed by Enterity, including the award-winning Osiris Web Content Management Suite. Relationships with professionals and organizations in the history and preservation field lend Enterity key insights for the most effective development of these tools.
As part of an on-going commitment to support the vision of protecting the nation's irreplaceable historic places and treasures, Enterity also announces the establishment of its Vision Pledge Program, an initiative where a portion of Enterity's sales of Historic Information Management solutions will be donated to designated state and national historic preservation organizations to assist them in realizing their mission, and to help them serve municipalities, constituents and the community more effectively.
"The message carried by history and historic preservation organizations is clear and strong. The protection and promotion of our past provides us with a sense of continuity, pride and understanding," concludes Enterity CEO Biebesheimer. "Enterity and its shareholders have had a deep interest in the preservation of historic resources; the Vision Pledge Program was a natural means for us to contribute to on-going efforts in this area."
