The Afterlife of Archaeological Information: Use and Reuse of Digital Archaeological Data
Part of: Society for American Archaeology 80th Annual Meeting, San Francisco, CA (2015)
Archaeological projects generate a lot of data. High value, interpretable data are published in the final report or other publications, but a great deal of additional data remain inaccessible. What happens to these invaluable supporting data (e.g. field notes, photographs, raw data sets, GIS files, etc.) after the final product is complete? This poster session explores ways that archaeologists who practice in many different settings (academic, agency, CRM) preserve and make available their digital archaeological products for future use.
