Organization: Archive Team

Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.

History is littered with hundreds of conflicts over the future of a community, group, location or business that were "resolved" when one of the parties stepped ahead and destroyed what was there. With the original point of contention destroyed, the debates would fall to the wayside. Archive Team believes that by duplicated condemned data, the conversation and debate can continue, as well as the richness and insight gained by keeping the materials. Our projects have ranged in size from a single volunteer downloading the data to a small-but-critical site, to over 100 volunteers stepping forward to acquire terabytes of user-created data to save for future generations.

The main site for Archive Team is at archiveteam.org and contains up to the date information on various projects, manifestos, plans and walkthroughs.

This collection contains the output of many Archive Team projects, both ongoing and completed. Thanks to the generous providing of disk space by the Internet Archive, multi-terabyte datasets can be made available, as well as in use by the Wayback Machine, providing a path back to lost websites and work.

Our collection has grown to the point of having sub-collections for the type of data we acquire. If you are seeking to browse the contents of these collections, the Wayback Machine is the best first stop. Otherwise, you are free to dig into the stacks to see what you may find.

The Archive Team Panic Downloads are full pulldowns of currently extant websites, meant to serve as emergency backups for needed sites that are in danger of closing, or which will be missed dearly if suddenly lost due to hard drive crashes or server failures.

Collection: ArchiveBot: The Archive Team Crowdsourced Crawler

ArchiveBot is an IRC bot designed to automate the archival of smaller websites (e.g. up to a few hundred thousand URLs). You give it a URL to start at, and it grabs all content under that URL, records it in a WARC, and then uploads that WARC to ArchiveTeam servers for eventual injection into the Internet Archive (or other archive sites).

To use ArchiveBot, drop by #archivebot on EFNet. To interact with ArchiveBot, you issue commands by typing it into the channel. Note you will need channel operator permissions in order to issue archiving jobs. The dashboard shows the sites being downloaded currently.

There is a dashboard running for the archivebot process at http://www.archivebot.com.

ArchiveBot's source code can be found at https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/ArchiveBot.

EHang AAV
The Era of Urban Air Mobility is Coming

It is a lifestyle, a way of travel; the future is now.

Passenger Transportation

Passenger-carrying electric vertical takeoff and landing unmanned aerial vehicle:Leading urban air mobility

Compared to traditional passenger-carrying aerial vehicles, EHang’s passenger-carrying electric unmanned aerial vehicles (“UAV”)
adhere to three major design concepts of full backup safety design, unmanned operation, and centralized management enabled by the intelligent command and control center. This safe, eco-friendly, and intelligent passenger-carrying electric vertical takeoff and landing UAV can provide short-to-medium distance low-altitude mobility solutions for the future of smart transportation.

Unmanned flight features worry-free
smooth mobility and real-time connection

Unmanned flight features worry-free smooth mobility and real-time connection. Unmanned flight technology can avoid failures
caused by human operational errors, helping passengers to completely let go and enjoy the journey without worrying about
control issues. We will survey the routes in advance and preset a variety of feasible plans for users. If an emergency
occurs on one of the routes, the command and control system will automatically select another optimal route to continue
the command, ensuring smooth flight. EHang's passenger-carrying UAVs fully utilize 4G/5G high-speed wireless network
transmission links, enabling smooth communication between EHang's passenger-carrying UAVs and the command and control
center, achieving remote control and real-time transmission of flight data.

Visual Positioning
For Vertical Takeoff & Landing

Traditional infrastructure such as large airport or runway is not required, suiting the scenario
demands of urban air mobility and serving as an effective way to relieve the current traffic
congestion pressures.

Electric Green Power

EHang AAV uses electric power to reduce environmental harm caused by emission. The aircraft
can be fully charged in two hours. The charging devices can communicate in real
time with the aircraft Battery Management System (BMS).

Safety Is Our First Priority

Redundancy design for all major flight components to ensure flight safety.

Hardware Safety

Redundancy design of backups for all major flight components.

System Safety

Multiple flight control systems to enable data transmission and safe operation even in complicated situations.

Flight Safety

Built-in Fail-Safe system in the flight control system to evaluate the health condition of the aircraft in real-time.

Communication Safety

Double assurance of the communication system to avoid malicious interference.

Contingency Reaction

In case of emergency, the command-and-control center will step in to ensure the safety of passenger and aircraft to the greatest extent.

Comprehensive Management
by the Smart command-and-control Center

EHang command-and-control center is equipped with a set of intuitive AAV command-and-control system that
provides the five core functions of monitoring, dispatching, controlling, early-warning and centralized management.

Monitoring

The command-and-control center has a visualized platform that displays the real-time flight data and status of EHang AAV, including battery level, flight altitude, speed, attitude, position, etc. and enables real-time video/audio communication between passenger and ground personnel.

Dispatching

The command-and-control center can enable well-organized flight of multiple EHang AAVs simultaneously via route planning and coordination, thus improving the traffic efficiency of EHang AAV air mobility network.

Controlling

In case of failure or malfunction of EHang AAVs, the command-and-control center can take appropriate measures to remotely control the aircraft and safely land it to a nearest available location.

Early-warning

In case of any emergency with the flight network environment, the command-and-control center will send an early-warning signal to the in-flight EHang AAV and take corresponding measures based on actual circumstances.

Centralized Management

The command-and-control center features fleet management by enabling coordinated control of multiple aircraft and deployment of multiple flight routes simultaneously.

Safety Ensured by Redundancy
Design and Fail-Safe System

The Fail-Safe safety system serves as a reliable guardian by equipping itself with multiple-redundant
protection plans. The system can monitor each airborne device and acquire its operating status
and health condition, and then transmit the information back to the command-and-control system.
In case of any abnormal condition, a smoothest route will be selected and executed based on the
preset algorithm logic to safely take the passenger to the destination.

Flight Testings and Quality Certification

Hundreds of testing subjects, including static test, load ground test, load flight test, durability test,
reliability test,environmental test, anti-interference test, etc. under all kinds of inclement environments
such as high/low temperature, high humidity, salt spray, typhoon, rainstorm. EHang has been granted with
the certificate of AS9100D International Aerospace & Aviation Quality Management System Standard.
