“…Where temporal data needed cleaning to create consistent use of date ranges and periods, partners use an additional tool, Yearspans, to normalise date ranges (Binding and Tudhope 2023). They also had to ensure that their spatial data was compliant with WGS84.…”

The archaeological research community was an early adopter of digital tools for data acquisition, organisation, analysis, and presentation of research results of individual projects. However, the provision of e-infrastructure and services for data sharing, discovery, access, and reuse has lagged behind. The ARIADNE Research Infrastructure has sought to address this situation. Developed with European funding, ARIADNE has created an e-infrastructure that enables data providers to register and provide access to their digital resources through the ARIADNE data portal, facilitating discovery, access, and research. ARIADNE has aggregated resources from over 45 data providers, spanning over 40 countries and 4 continents. The portal now provides online access to over 3.9 million research resources. It is based upon Linked Open Data technologies and is underpinned by a flexible and extensible architecture, enabling multiple combinations and presentations of the same underpinning data. We have been keen not to 'make a great heap' of all the data and, learning from previous data aggregation projects, we have defined a subset of the CIDOC CRM to be used as a strict ontology and paid close attention to data standards and controlled vocabularies to achieve a high degree of interoperability. This article discusses some of the challenges of large-scale data integration and describes the approaches adopted to ensure that the ARIADNE Knowledge Base is an effective tool for archaeological heritage management and research at a national and international level.

BaDACor is a database that contains a comprehensive inventory of archaeological sites located in the province of Córdoba, Argentina. The creation of this database was the result of a top-down approach, which involved the collaboration of decision-makers and professionals from the academic and state-governmental sectors. Furthermore, the database has also been utilised in a bottom-up approach, whereby interest groups and citizens concerned with heritage preservation have made use of it. This has been particularly important in light of the construction of Highway 38, which has resulted in damage to natural habitats and the destruction of territories of communities with traditional ways of life. Additionally, the construction of the highway has also endangered the integrity of ancestral territories loaded with symbolism for aboriginal communities. BaDACor has been employed in legal claims in cases of conflict with the state, and has proved to be an invaluable tool for heritage management. This is especially significant for local communities and indigenous groups who have historically had their heritage desecrated, destroyed, and hidden. The availability of BaDACor on different platforms has facilitated better access to information while also ensuring the preservation of digital data. The use of digital media has been reinforced through talks, conferences, and meetings with stakeholders to ensure that the voices of affected communities are heard in decision-making processes.

La comunidad de investigación arqueológica fue una de las primeras en adoptar herramientas digitales para la adquisición, organización, análisis y presentación de resultados de proyectos individuales. Sin embargo, la provisión de infraestructura electrónica y servicios para compartir, descubrir, acceder y reutilizar datos ha estado rezagada. Esta situación ha sido abordada por la Infraestructura de Investigación ARIADNE. Desarrollada con financiamiento europeo, ARIADNE ha creado una infraestructura electrónica que permite a los proveedores de datos registrar y proporcionar acceso a sus recursos digitales a través del portal de datos de ARIADNE, facilitando el descubrimiento, acceso e investigación. ARIADNE ha agregado recursos de más de 45 proveedores de datos, abarcando más de 40 países y 4 continentes. El portal ahora proporciona acceso en línea a más de 3.9 millones de recursos de investigación. Se basa en tecnologías de Linked Open Data y tiene una arquitectura flexible y extensible, lo que permite múltiples combinaciones y presentaciones de los mismos datos subyacentes. Hemos tenido cuidado de no “crear un gran montón” de datos y, aprendiendo de proyectos previos de agregación de datos, hemos definido un subconjunto de estandares del CIDOC CRM para ser utilizados como una ontología estricta y prestamos atención a estándares de datos y vocabularios controlados para lograr un alto grado de interoperabilidad. Este artículo analiza algunos de los desafíos de esa integración de datos a gran escala y describe los enfoques adoptados para asegurar que la Base de Conocimientos de ARIADNE sea una herramienta efectiva para la gestión e investigación del patrimonio arqueológico a nivel nacional e internacional.
