Archaeology Data Management Guidelines
Archaeology Data Management Guidelines are a set of best practices to ensure that archaeological data—such as findings, records, and photographs—are organized, preserved, and accessible. These guidelines help researchers document their discoveries accurately and securely, facilitating sharing with others in the field and the public. They emphasize the importance of using standardized methods for data collection, storage, and sharing to maintain credibility and promote collaboration. By following these guidelines, archaeologists can protect valuable information and enhance the overall understanding of historical and cultural heritage.
