DIGITAL ARCHAEOLOGY: EUROPEAN ARIADNEPLUS PROJECT LAUNCHED

ariadne plus 2019 Monuments, sites and archaeological finds, in Europe and other countries, can be reached just with a click. This is the ambitious goal of the ARIADNEPLUS project, which aims to build a platform to integrate data from archaeological investigations, and which sees among its new partners also INFN, with its CHNet network dedicated to the cultural heritage. The project, whose launch event took place in February, is the geographic and thematic extension of the previous ARIADNE project: Israel, Argentina, Japan and the United States joined it and scientific investigations were integrated. And to implement scientific investigations the INFN-CHNet network joined the project, since it is active in the field of archaeological heritage analysis with a great variety of techniques. The INFN-CHNet network is already working on the creation of digilabs, digital archives that will initially allow researchers, followed by the entire community and subsequently the public, to share data coming from all the nodes of the network. This will open enormous possibilities for researchers, including the reuse of data: indeed, the data acquired by one group can be used by other researchers to respond to new queries and guide any subsequent experimental campaigns.
