Roundtable on paradata at CAA 2021
CAPTURE is organising a roundtable discussion on paradata at the forthcoming Computer Applications and Quantitative Methods in Archaeology (CAA) 2021 organised online by Cyprus University of Technology.
The roundtable session features short lightning talks describing evidence-based and theoretical work, positions statements and perspectives relating to archaeological paradata i.e. data about processes of, for instance, creating, using, manipulating and managing archaeological data and information in different forms (e.g. digital measurement and observation data, spatial data, visualisa- tions, texts physical collections and features). The contributions focus on identifying theoretical and practical opportunities, challenges and gaps in how paradata is understood at the moment, how these issues should be solved and what aspects require more research.
