Notas do Editor
- Thanks to everyone for turning up. I work for Oxford Archaeology as an IT research and development officer. You might have some preconceptions about what an archaeology unit is- we don’t always work for universities, we’re not volunteers, and we have some fairly strong opinions about Time Team and Bonekickers. We are the largest commercial archaeological organisation in the UK, possibly in Europe, with 400 staff across 3 UK offices and 1 French. We have the same concerns over data management, efficiency, staff training and basically getting the job done as any other professional company. However, as it is important to us to maintain our records and data in perpetuity, as it’s the often the only record of what we have dug up, we have made the decision to embrace an “open” ethos: Open access to our data, open standards, and open source software where possible. This talk is an entirely personal exploration of the issues that have become clear to me over the last year or so as we try and move towards using entirely open source GIS.
