SHARE is the first of a series of webinars on the most pressing issues in archaeological (digital) practice.
It is an open space where two or more experts discuss a specific topic from different perspectives. By reviewing methodologies and pipelines from multiple angles, SHARE shed light on the complex process of shifting practice, underlining limits and potentials of new digital methods in archaeology.
In this first appointment, Dr Giacomo Landeschi illustrates the potential to perform 3D-based digitization in a GIS environment and set it as a standard procedure for single-context site documentation. The presentation will be done in dialogue with Dr James Taylor, Lecturer and Director of the Undergraduate Programmes in the Department of Archaeology at the University of York. He also co-direct the Digital Archaeology and Digital Heritage MSc programmes. Dr Taylor has active research interests in Theory and Method in Archaeology and Digital Methods in Archaeology (especially Applied GIS, Critical GIS, and the impact of the 'Digital Turn' on archaeological practice).

Dr. Giacomo Landeschi (Lund University) illustrates the potential of performing 3D-based digitization in a GIS environment and setting it as a standard procedure for single-context site documentation. More advanced tools for editing allow now archaeologists to take advantage of 3D surface models as a geometrical reference for drawing context boundaries in the form of polylines and polygons defined by 3D vertices. What new opportunities such a workflow can open for? What problems arise? The purpose of this dialogue is to foresee new directions in site documentation.
Dr. James Stuart Taylor (University of York) will be the discussant for this first webinar.
