View The Interactive Map On The New Zealand Archaeological Association’s Archaeological Site Recording Scheme Website

Late last week the New Zealand Archaeological Association launched their new site recording scheme website.

ArchSite is a new initiative that will enable people to more easily access information about archaeological sites in New Zealand. ArchSite is an online database that contains information about recorded archaeological sites, and uses GIS (Geographic Information System) technology to manage and display site information. ArchSite is the national inventory of archaeological sites in New Zealand, and the information it contains is used for research, site management and protection. There are currently over 60,000 sites recorded in ArchSite.

The public version of the interactive map is now available. The interactive map was built by our Professional Services Team.

The site features the ArcGIS API for JavaScript powered by ArcGIS Server 9.3 SP1. The base maps are cached providing a great user experience. Points are dynamic drawn once below a certain scale level. Users also have the ability to query points which provide the NZAA ID which they can then use when contacting NZAA. Great work guys
