User's Manual for the Cultural Resources Information System (CRIS), Version 2.0

Abstract

The Cultural Resources Information System (CRIS) assists cultural resources managers and environmental planners at U.S. military installations in managing the inventory and evaluation of cultural resources that may be affected by Federally funded projects. CRIS aids in the preparation of a Historic Preservation Plan and enables managers and planners to input, edit, store, compare, analyze, and output data on historic or prehistoric cultural resources. CRIS 2.0 is an outgrowth of the Archaeological Sites Information System (ASIS) and is an updated version of CRIS 1.0 released in 1989. CRIS 2.0 will run on a 286 IBM compatible personal computer with at least 640K-B Random Access Memory (RAM). The system must be equipped with MS-DOS version 3.1 or above. For best performance, a 386SX (or higher) with 4 MB RAM is recommended. To run CRIS 2.0 on a network you will need 480KB free memory after the network shell is loaded with a NetBIOS compatible network. This manual contains instructions for setting up the system, inputting and editing data, and conducting search/retrieval activities for analysis and reporting.
