GIS: The Modern Approach Of An Archaeology

Geographic Information Science (GIS) has made a major impact in fields like the earth sciences and historical research by opening new avenues for discovery and providing a new perspective on the world around us. Archaeologists were among the earliest adopters of GIS, beginning to utilize geospatial technology for projects in the 1980s. Though older software could be challenging to use, GIS mapping was an intuitive fit in a field focused on exploring human history through the recovery of artifacts and architecture.
