About ArkeoGIS

ArkeoGIS is a web platform for publishing, mapping and sharing unified scientific data about the past. Users import archaeological data through a guided process with online correction assistance and DublinCore metadata, then query multidisciplinary spatialized datasets by place, time and contributor on an interactive map. Search results can be exported as CSV for reuse in spreadsheets, QGIS or R.

The homepage reports 171 datasets, 47 common map funds, 132,945 sites, 1,883 thesaurus terms, 18 chronologies and 407 multidisciplinary institutions. Data is described as pooled in four languages, while the site itself is listed as French. Long-term conservation is supported through perpetual DOI identifiers, ARK identifiers for terms and duplicated hosting. Pricing is not stated, and no account-free workflow is described.
