Project description

The proposed project consists of a first step towards a formal definition of a conceptual data model specifically designed for 4D archaeological data and analysis. The requirements of the archaeologists will take a central position in this development. The model will be gradually created using test cases on archaeological sites and continous feedback with the detected user requirements.
