We are just getting ourselves together, but it is our hopes that this serves as a gathering point for AIA members with this interest/expertise, to increase the profile of geospatial approaches, and to serve as a means to interface with other professional organizations.

If you’re a member of the AIA and are interested in joining, feel free to send me an email at newhardj@cofc.edu.

For several years I collaborated with the Dept of Archaeological Sciences on a project using soil geochemistry in prospection in Greece.
(Bintliff, John, Davies, B., Gaffney, C., Snodgrass, A. and Waters, A. 1992. Trace metal accumulations in soils on and around ancient settlements in Greece. (in) “Geoprospection in the Archaeological Landscape”; edited by P. Spoerry, Oxbow Monograph 18, pp 9 – 24. Oxbow Books, Oxford, England. ISBN 0-946897-42-5).
Now retired and living in Mt Pleasant I should like to hear more about this interest group.
