Archaeology data downloads

Some of our larger projects and joint ventures with partner organisations create large digital datasets. Material can include texts, databases, digital images, and GIS files. Our aim is to make these datasets available for other researchers and professionals. Many have been deposited with, and are available from, the Archaeology Data Service.

In most cases only raw data packages are available but increasingly we are trying to provide free presentational and analytical software to make our data more accessible.

All WA geotagged content (title, link, location) is now available in KML (wessex-projects.kml).
Experimentally this data is also available as JSON - latest version 6/4/12.
