Abstract
Abstract. The systematic documentation of cultural heritage in Indonesia has been developed after the establishment of Bataviaasch Genootschap van Kunsten en Wetenschappen (1778) and De Oudheidkundige Dienst (1913) by the Netherlands Indies government. After Indonesian independent, the tasks of cultural heritage documentation take over by The Ministry of Culture (now become The Ministry of Education of Culture) with focus on the ancient and classical heritage, so called dead monument.

This manuscript is about PDA field experience, working in this subject issue

Not to disregard the vernacular architecture in heritage kampongs or villages that still occupied as living monument but because most of the historic buildings from Islam, Chinese and Dutch legacy situated in the city center, are still occupied as a living monument, have endangered and threatened by the demolitions and destruction of city developments, the increase of sea level that cause flood, material deterioration, being abandoned and lack of good infrastructure maintenance This happened because of most of Indonesian cities do not have comprehensive city master plan,.
