[Talk-GB] Mapping Archaeology

[Brian Savidge]

The openhistoricalmap is completely blank for me (both in Internet Explorer and Chrome), so I guess it hasn't taken off.
 
It seems a shame not to add the data into OSM in some way assuming the group finds something.  Do you know of any examples of areas where groups of Archaeologists (like Time Team) have added information into OSM?

Was it http://www.openhistoricalmap.org you were thinking of?

Hi
A friend of mine belongs to a local Archaeology group and they are going to do some surveying shortly using a variety of methods including ground penetrating radar.  I thought it would be nice if somehow the results get put onto Open Street Map.  

 
Are buried walls and landscape features suitable for recording on Open Street Map perhaps at level -1?  I have a feeling I saw something a while ago about a parallel open streetmap that was intended for archaeology and recording things that are no longer visible, but I have lost the link and can't find any references to the site.

 
Any thoughts on the matter?
