TAGGED : DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY AND ARCHAEOLOGISTS

Abstract

By looking at both the formal and informal dissemination of archaeological photography this paper will examine the way that digital images are shared and recorded. The influence that this technology has had on working practice will be explored. Through the examination of images on Flickr and Facebook issues of user engagement and data quality will be discussed. This will then be compared against the data held within archives. Finally how these two very different image stores can learn from each other will be explored.
