oops
wrong phone number
it is 01285 884749
seems alot of people answered on my behalf (see also SMRForum)
indeed we do have an implementation of what we call monument monitoring
It is an expansion of what is currently in MIDAS and in MIDAS 2 we
expect to see the Management Information Scheme extended with the extra
Units of Information that include ..
agent of damage
extent of the agents damage
Vulnerability
Condition
When Visited
Who visited
Photograph
comments
next monitoring date
cheers

Yes the National Trust has full lists for
In MIDAS 2 we hope that we will see these included but if you want I can
send the lists and maybe help with implementation ...
Agents of Damage i.e. animals (with the extent of the damage)
Condition
Vulnerability
my phone number is 01285 994749

Hi Tait!
The National Trust developed an add-on to HBSMR which allows users to
record
monitoring visits to sites. The condition of each site at each visit is
assessed in terms of:
Stability - unknown, rapid deterioration, slow deterioration, stable
Vulnerability - high, medium, low, unknown
Damage By - one or more of the following options, each option can have a
measure of the impact of damage - Severe, Moderate, Slight, None,
Potential
BAN Burrowing animals
BUI Building work
BUR Burning
CLT Cultivation
DEM Demolition
DIS Disturbance/intrusion
ENV Environmental cause
INA Info not available
MDT Metal detector activity
MNQ Mining/quarrying
NFA No factors apply
PEO People (erosion)
RD Road construction
SHP Sheep
STK Other Stock
STM Storm damage
TRE Tree planting
VAN Vandalism
VEG Vegetation
VEH Vehicles
WAT Water action
This list seems broadly comparable to the MPP list you quote, and I
agree
with Ed that an agreed standard terminology is the way forward.
In addition monitored by, monitor date, photographed ?, and site
recommendations can be recorded for each site.
Jason Siddall at the National Trust will know more about the
implementation
of this recording schema, and I am not sure whether any other SMRs are
using
this system. Perhaps any that are would like to comment?
Hope that helps
Sarah

Hi Graham,
Another source, which I'm sure colleagues on FISH can comment on, is the
wordlists used by the National Trust, who, as you can imagine, have a
lot of
experience in this sort of survey.
For comparison, the Buildings at Risk surveys combine two separate
measures
'Condition' and 'Occupancy' together to assess the 'Risk' to a building
(I
think as Low, Medium or High).
Very much an area that needs to be covered by extensions of MIDAS and
the
INSCRIPTION terminology standards.
