    Jolene Smith replied to the topic Call for SAA presenters: Futures & Challenges in Government Digital Archaeology in the forum Group logo of State Government Archaeology DataState Government Archaeology Data 4 years, 5 months ago

    Hello all, the SAA electronic symposium site is live at https://aejolene.github.io/SAA2018digigovt/.

    Even if you didn’t submit an abstract for the in-person session, there are lots of opportunities to contribute. You can submit a full conference paper, a brief blog post, a link to your project, or just answer the survey on the site before April…[Read more]

    Dear colleagues,

    With sponsorship from the SAA Digital Data Interest Group, I’m pulling together an electronic symposium for the upcoming Society for American Archaeology conference in Washington DC and looking for presenters. Papers/presentations will be made available online, but there will also be an in-person session for demos and creative d…[Read more]

    Jolene Smith started the topic Field Records and Digital Records Policies? in the forum Group logo of State Government Archaeology DataState Government Archaeology Data 5 years, 4 months ago

    Hi all,

    I’m looking for good examples of field records (digital and physical) policies when dealing with materials submitted by outside archaeologists for curation. Do you all have any you’d be willing to share?

    Thanks in advance!

    In reply to: Kate Ellenberger posted an update in the group News and Conversation What do you think the privacy of this group should be? Would you like this to be a less-public space to discuss news and issues compared to twitter? View

    I agree with Alice Lynn. I do like the idea of it not being completely public (like, posts only being visible to group members). I’d love to have an alternative space for the non-Twitter folks that’s not Facebook. Someone on Twitter yesterday (during the anti-Twitter CAA discussions) mentioned cliques. To what extent cliques are a problem I can’t…[Read more]

      That’s fair, I certainly know that we cannot “replace” any of the existing venues but I agree, we know the principles of this venue and can shape the boundaries of the community should it take off more. And I hope it does. Some things are not best solved on Twitter or Facebook even though they can also be useful tools.

    Jolene Smith replied to the topic Online Site File Databases Roundup in the forum Group logo of State Government Archaeology DataState Government Archaeology Data 5 years, 11 months ago

    Paige- yes. Our site forms have been fully electronic in a relational database since the mid-90s, actually. In this newest iteration of our system, users enter their information directly and also digitize site boundaries (or upload shapefiles) directly. I QC each record in two steps and then assign the site number at the end. As soon as approve…[Read more]

    Virginia’s site form process is also fully online. I’m about to redo the user documentation in much more detail, but here’s the very quick user guide (PDF) from 2013 if it’s helpful for anyone.

    Jolene Smith replied to the topic Digital Data and Climate Change/Disaster Response in the forum Group logo of State Government Archaeology DataState Government Archaeology Data 5 years, 11 months ago

    Although an unlikely source, Atlas Obscura pointed me to these two initiatives for rapid response to disasters. The Copernicus service is through the EU, but it looks like they do make US maps and they could be invaluable in the face of a major weather disaster. Overlaying historic resources to assist responding agencies would be…[Read more]

    Thanks for joining and for the info! It’s really interesting to see the differences between states with a high proportion of Federal land control vs. those with smaller amounts of Fed land.

    Jolene Smith replied to the topic CSS/HTML columns from shorcode objects in WordPress in the forum Group logo of Institute for Digital Archaeology Method & PracticeInstitute for Digital Archaeology Method & Practice 5 years, 11 months ago

    That is the gallery shortcode, actually. So what you see right now is gallery behavior. My other option will be to make a grid and put in the individual objects so I can control them a little better (but that would take longer). Regardless, I can make it work somehow. Thanks, Ethan!

    Hi all,

    I’m making great progress with my site! The KORA Connect WordPress plugin is working great and now I’m trying to wrangle the output into submission with CSS and am running into trouble. Here’s the overview:

    The WordPress shortcode pulls in PHP elements. If I add a WordPress gallery with no CSS edits, all items show up, but they’re too…[Read more]

    Question for those of you digitizing things- how are you funding your projects?

  • Profile picture of Jolene Smith

    Jolene Smith replied to the topic Online Site File Databases Roundup in the forum Group logo of State Government Archaeology DataState Government Archaeology Data 5 years, 11 months ago

    Thanks to you both for contributing! One of the great things about this Commons group is the ability to set up websites and share documents within. This topic might be a really great candidate for expansion in one of those directions since we’re all continually doing research on the subject. I can’t wait to read more responses.

    Virginia is prioritizing long term planning and response to coastal erosion, rising seas, and other impacts of climate change along with strategies for short term disaster response. How is your state using digital tools or data to address these issues? 

    We’ve prioritized an increase in both archaeological and architectural survey in defined…[Read more]

    Since this is a perennial question as agencies create new systems and improve old ones, tell us about your state’s site data availability.

    Hello and welcome! This group is meant to be a forum for sharing ideas, challenges, and solutions related to digital archaeology information at the state level. It’s a bit challenging to scale this group specifically, since agency organization is so varied from state to state, but consider this a big tent (not just SHPO people).

    The group’s…[Read more]
