ABSTRACT Archaeologists study many phenomena that scale beyond even our most geographically expansive field methodologies. The promise of collecting archaeologically relevant data beyond the scale of regional surveys is among the most exciting prospects of the “data revolution.” Yet previous efforts have either struggled to generate high-quality data within expansive regions or to use well-edited interregional datasets to address novel research questions. We discuss the development of two collaborative research projects that seek to address these problems—GeoPACHA (Geospatial Platform for Andean Culture, History and Archaeology) and LOGAR (Linked Open Gazetteer of the Andean Region). The former is an online platform facilitating virtual archaeological survey of satellite and historical aerial imagery; the latter collates primary source information on Andean places. We illustrate the potential of both tools through presentation and analysis of a comprehensive basemap of the planned colonial towns built during a mass resettlement program instituted in the viceroyalty of Peru in the 1570s C.E.

大数据时代的区域间考古:在安第斯山脉建立虚拟调查的在线协作平台

摘要考古学家研究了许多现象,这些现象甚至超出了我们在地理上最广泛的野外研究方法范围。收集超出区域调查范围的考古相关数据的承诺是“数据革命”最令人兴奋的前景之一。然而,先前的努力要么难以在广阔的区域内生成高质量的数据,要么难以使用经过良好编辑的区域间数据集来解决新颖的研究问题。我们讨论了旨在解决这些问题的两个合作研究项目的开发-GeoPACHA(安第斯文化,历史和考古地理空间平台)和LOGAR(安第斯地区的公开地名词典)。前者是一个在线平台,可促进对卫星和历史航空影像的虚拟考古调查;后者在安第斯山脉地方整理主要来源信息。我们通过介绍和分析在1570年代秘鲁总督制定的大规模重新安置计划期间建造的计划殖民城镇的综合底图来说明这两种工具的潜力
