Documentation, digitization and research data management platform

Graphic documentation understood as the representation and interpretation of archaeology, is a basic instrument for our knowledge of archaeological sites, monuments, and archaeological findings. The ICAC scientific-technical service on Technologies of Graphic Documentation (TDG) offers an effective graphic documentation service applied to historical heritage (representing, interpreting, explaining) and promotes continuous technological innovation. Since 2019, the TDG service has been working with a new internal organization that encourages collaboration between the Institute’s research teams and the TDG staff, fostering innovation in the methodological and technological fields of archaeological graphic documentation. TDG activity, therefore, focuses on technical support for ICAC research teams, while external orders are managed according to the research interests of ICAC research groups.
