<h1>Expo Online Systems Overview</h1>
<p>The cave data and online publishing system (aka "the website") is now large and complicated.
This page is the overview. The online systems manuals are split into these sections:
<ul>
<li><a href="../troggle/training/trogbegin.html">Troggle - initial training</a> - start here for complete beginners<br>
<li><a href="manual.html"><b>Data maintenance</b></a> - for cavers finding and updating cave survey data using the software tools.
<ul>
<li><a href="../survey/status.html">Monitoring</a> the cave survey workflow status</li>
<li><a href="todo-data.html">To-do</a> - data maintenance to-do list
<li><a href="../treasurer.html">Accounts</a> - the Bank of Expo, the bier book
</ul>
<li><a href="../survey/index.htm"><b>Survey handbook</b></a> - how to input cave survey data.
<li><a href="hbmanual1.html"><b>Handbook maintenance</b></a> - how to improve and update what you are reading now.
<li><a href="../troggle/trogintro.html"><b>System maintenance</b></a> - how to fix and enhance the software tools we have written:
<ul>
<li><a href="newyear.html">the next expo</a> - preparing for next year
<li><a href="../computing/repos.html">The repositories</a></li>
<li><a href="todo.html">To-do</a> - online systems to-do list
<li><a href="../troggle/trogmanual.html">Troggle</a> - the system framework
<li><a href="../troggle/scriptsother.html">Other scripts</a>
<li><a href="../troggle/serverconfig.html">Server configuration</a>
</ul>
<img class="onright" alt="gosser bier" src="../i/gosser-panorama.jpg" />
</ul>
<p>How to use basecamp computers and networks, how to configure your phone for GPS, how to use your own laptop and "how to expo" in general are all part of the <em>handbook content</em>:
<ul>
<li><a style="color: blue"
href="contribute.html">How can I contribute?</a>
<li><a href="/handbook/logbooks.html#form">Writing a new logbook entry</a></li> <li><a href="uploading.html">Uploading your photos</a></li>
<li><a href="../logbooks.html">Uploading typed logbooks</a></li>
<li><a href="gpxupload.html">Uploading GPS tracks</a></li>
<li><a href="../survey/newcave.html">Recording a new cave discovery</a></li>
<li><a href="computer.html">Bascamp computers and network</a> - what there is in the potato hut
<li><a href="manual.html">Data maintenance</a> - finding and updating cave survey data using online tools
<li><a href="basiclaptop.html">Configuring your own laptop</a> - for managing drawings and survey files, photographs and scanned images</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Surveying and recording survey data is the reason all this exists.</strong> The "survey handbook" part of this handbook gives
instructions to beginners for how to record discoveries and surveys. <p><a href="../survey/why.htm"><img class="onleft" src="go-caving-th.jpg"></a>
The "data maintenance" manual is where to look for help when things go wrong: the data has been entered incorrectly, or software has crashed due to
corrupt input data.
<p>The "system maintenance" manual may of interest to a caver who wonders how it is all put together but should not be needed by most people.
<p>
A fuller list of "How do I..." instruction pages are on <a href="../index.htm">the handbook opening page</a>. If you are new to this you may need a
beer. A very fine place for a beer is the Panorama Restaurant at the top of the toll road - as illustrated.
<hr />
<p>We have <a href="wookey-slides.html">an Overview Presentation</a> (2015: many parts out of date)
on how the cave data,
handbook and public website are constructed and managed.
It contains material which will be merged into these online manuals.
