Historic Structures Preservation Database

A database management system (DBMS) application developed for the
National Park Service.

Introduction:

During the past ten years, the Historic Architecture Division of
the National Park Service (NPS) has viewed with increasing
concern the growing complexity of information management as it
relates to preservation activities of all kinds.  As a
consequence, the NPS has initiated the development of a
computerized information base called the Historic Structures
Preservation Database (HSPD).  The HSPD is designed to serve as a
data resource capable of supporting activities relating to
"historic and prehistoric structures preservation technology and
procedures" (Battle, 1988).
