T1000 Database

The first version of Heurist was built in 2005 using the T1000 templating system developed by the Archaeological Computing Laboratory at the University of Sydney. T1000 is still used for many of the functions, althoguh the main search and retrieval/ouput functions have been completely rewritten for improved speed.

The T1000 database wizard permits the building of stable, well-structured, easily modified web database application in minutes without any knowledge of database programming. 

Databases generated with the T1000 wizard use portable, open-source software (MySQL and PHP) and automatically support passworded access, validated input, file upload, coordinates and web mapping, free text searching, pre-defined lookups, one-to-many and many-to-many relationships, delivery of data as a web service, RSS feeds - all without any extra work. 

The databases can be run on the Heurist server, or be downloaded and copied to another server.  T1000 provides the core functionality of Heurist and all theother online database applications.
