Project description
A simple search takes researchers from the dig to the data set
Giving the past a future: the integration of archaeological data infrastructures in Europe is vital to ensure researchers are able to search through vast data sets on a specific topic. Building on the success of the previous ARIADNE project, which successfully integrated archaeological data infrastructures in Europe (indexing some 2 million data sets on its portal), this EU-funded ARIADNEplus project will update the data and extend geographic and temporal coverage. Specifically, it will further develop relationships with key stakeholders to cover all of Europe. It will also develop a new data infrastructure embedded in a cloud that will offer the availability of virtual research environments where data-based archaeological research may be carried out. It will also simplify the search process with pre-compiled menus.
Objective
The ARIADNEplus project is the extension of the previous ARIADNE Integrating Activity, which successfully integrated archaeological data infrastructures in Europe, indexing in its registry about 2.000.000 datasets. ARIADNEplus will build on the ARIADNE results, extending and supporting the research community that the previous project created and further developing the relationships with key stakeholders such as the most important European archaeological associations, researchers, heritage professionals, national heritage agencies and so on. The new enlarged partnership of ARIADNEplus covers all of Europe. It now includes leaders in different archaeological domains like palaeoanthropology, bioarchaeology and environmental archaeology as well as other sectors of archaeological sciences, including all periods of human presence from the appearance of hominids to present times. Transnational Activities together with the planned training will further reinforce the presence of ARIADNEplus as a key actor.
The technology underlying the project is state-of-art. The ARIADNEplus data infrastructure will be embedded in a cloud that will offer the availability of Virtual Research Environments where data-based archaeological research may be carried out. The project will furthermore develop a Linked Data approach to data discovery. Innovative services will be made available to users, such as visualization, annotation, text mining and geo-temporal data management. Innovative pilots will be developed to test and demonstrate the innovation potential of the ARIADNEplus approach. Fostering innovation will be a key aspect of the project, with dedicated activities led by the project Innovation Manager.
