Through presentations, group discussion and practical activities this workshop will explore the importance of data management and digital preservation for the long term safety of archaeological data and provide practical guidance on how to prepare, curate, and deposit data. The workshop will begin with an introduction to data management and digital preservation for archaeology. Following this, participants will take part in a practical metadata identification activity which will encourage participants to think critically about how they create and manage their own archaeological data. The workshop will then outline current guidelines for data management and archiving, and provide advice on how to prepare and curate data to existing professional standards. The workshop will culminate with participants reflecting on the information gathered through the session to create a Data Management Plan (DMP) that will work for their own data management needs.<\/p>\n<h3>Learning outcomes<\/h3>\n<p>By the end of the course participants will be expected to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Understand the importance of good data management practices.<\/li>\n<li>Understand the importance of digital preservation for the long term safety of archaeological data.<\/li>\n<li>Understand the principles of best practice in data management.<\/li>\n<li>Have a working knowledge of current data management guidance and standards for archaeology.<\/li>\n<li>Understand the application of digital preservation and data management for their own work.<\/li>\n<li>Be able to prepare data management plans.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>National occupational standards<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>AE2 Develop procedures for the use of information resources.<\/li>\n<li>AE3 Classify, compile and maintain data on the material remains and intangible heritage of past communities.<\/li>\n<li>CCSAPAA1 Develop policies and guidance for archaeology<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Session programme<\/h3>\n<table border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"3\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>9:30<\/td>\n<td>Introduction, Katie Green<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9:40<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/CIFA-2018-DataManagementCPD-Intro.pdf\">Importance of good data management and digital preservation for archaeology<\/a>, Katie Green<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10:00<\/td>\n<td>Metadata Activity<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10:30<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/CIFA-2018-DataManagementCPD-standards.pdf\">Current Guidelines and Professional Standards<\/a>,\u00a0Tim Evans<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10:50<\/td>\n<td>Discussion<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>11:00<\/td>\n<td>Coffee and Tea<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>11:30<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/CIFA-2018-DataManagementCPD-ADAPT.pdf\">Archaeological Digital Archiving Protocol<\/a>,\u00a0Claire Tsang<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>12:00<\/td>\n<td>Data Management Planning Activity<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>12:30<\/td>\n<td>Review of Data Management Plans and Discussion<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>13:00<\/td>\n<td>Lunch<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2>Workshop resources<\/h2>\n<p>Blank <a href=\"\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/CIFA-2018-DataManagementCPD-BlankDMP.doc\">Data Management Plan<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Further reading<\/h2>\n<h3>Data management<\/h3>\n<p>The Digital Curation Center&#8217;s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dmponline.dcc.ac.uk\/\">Online Management Plan.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Digital Curation Center&#8217;s\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dcc.ac.uk\/sites\/default\/files\/documents\/resource\/DMP\/DMP_Checklist_2013.pdf\">Management Plan Check List<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Metadata and data formats<\/h3>\n<p>The ADS\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/archaeologydataservice.ac.uk\/help-guidance\/instructions-for-depositors\/files-and-metadata\/\">Preferred and Accepted File Formats<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The ADS\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/archaeologydataservice.ac.uk\/help-guidance\/instructions-for-depositors\/file-level-metadata\/\">Metadata Requirements<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.loc.gov\/preservation\/resources\/rfs\/TOC.html\">Library of Congress Recommended Formats Statement<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/historicengland.org.uk\/images-books\/publications\/digital-image-capture-and-file-storage\/\">Historic England Digital Image Capture and File Storage<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Heritage Data\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.heritagedata.org\/blog\/vocabularies-provided\/\">Vocabularies<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Historic Environment Scotland\u00a0Guidelines for Archiving Archaeological Projects\u00a0including Recommended File Formats.<\/p>\n<h3>Selection<\/h3>\n<p>ADS\u00a0<a href=\"\/help-guidance\/how-to-prepare-data\/selection-guidance\/\">Selection and Retention Guidelines<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The Digital Curation Center&#8217;s\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dcc.ac.uk\/sites\/default\/files\/documents\/How%20to%20Appraise%20and%20Select%20Research%20Data.pdf\">Selection and Retention Guidelines<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Coming Soon<a href=\"https:\/\/www.archaeologists.net\/groups\/archives\">\u00a0CIFA Archives Group<\/a>\u00a0Selection Toolkit for Archaeological Archives.<\/p>\n<h3>Archaeological archive standards and guidelines<\/h3>\n<p>ARCHES Archaeological Resources in Cultural Heritage a European Standard\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/archaeologydataservice.ac.uk\/arches\/\">website<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Archaeological Archives: A guide to best practice in creation, compilation, transfer and curation<\/p>\n<h3>Digital preservation<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dpconline.org\/\">Digital Preservation Coalition<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chartered Institute for Archaeologists CPD workshop (27 April 2018) Abstract Digital technologies have transformed the archaeological profession.
