摘要:There are some open questions when an archaeologist wants to create a GIS application. First of all the choice of the hw/sw platform: each GIS has its own format to store data and metadata and the different packages use different algorithms to process the information. Secondly, the user should be so expert to be able to create a specific GIS application, because often the package must be customized in order to answer to the user requests. Finally, the last aspect is the availability of an archeological GIS application on the Web in such a way to have the possibility to access archaeological documents and maps from a remote host. Unfortunately, archaeologists are usually not good computer literate and the software complexity doesn't urge them to use GIS. This paper presents ARCHEOGIS, an interoperable XML-based model allowing to describe archaeological data. This model has been designed in order to help the archaeologists in creating and managing their GIS application and in easily distributing data
