Every year archaeologists create a wealth of data through fieldwork and research. This data represents a unique record of our past. Despite the geographic character of much of that record we consistently fail to realise its potential. Site plans and detailed survey data are routinely locked into the pages of PDF reports. As a result plans fossilised in print cannot easily be reused alongside other datasets to improve our understanding of the past. Funded through the Royal Society of Edinburgh, this day conference explores current initiatives in Europe to capture and harmonise data from archaeological project work.
