Hi Pieter,

I just stumbled upon your project. In july we've released a new version of inventaris.onroerenderfgoed.be in order to integrate the different registers of protected monuments. Depending on your use case the added features might be interesting. For monuments it will be more reliable than depending on the link between the Inventory of architectural monuments and the register of monuments (e.g.: some trees are legally protected as monuments, but are not architectural in nature. Hence the count of monuments will be wrong).

I've also noticed you use a copy based on the DBF of the shapefile and generate links to our HTML search results. It might be more useful to use the available RESTfull services (Accept: application/json). I haven't checked out the complete application yet, but it seems to me you wouldn't need the GIS-copy if you use the rest service. You could also just integrate with the search service and generate your own result pager based on the JSON results.

If you're still working on this, don't hesitate to contact us.

Kind regard,

Maarten

Hi,

I wasn't continuing development on it, but I'll take a look at the new API and see what I can do with it.

Regards,

Pieter
