Open Context
Open Context is the Web-based publishing platform we developed for archaeology and related fields. Its technologies focus on ease of use, open licensing, data integration and, most importantly, data portability. Find out more about Open Context or contact us about publishing your data.
Technology Innovation
The AAI is a leader in technology innovation. Our work focuses on improving access, understanding, and reuse of research data. To this end, we developed (and continue to refine) Open Context, a data publishing service available free of charge on the Web. (more)
Research
Our current research projects include a Data Literacy Program, the Digging Digital Museum Collections Program, the Secret Life of Data, and the Digital Index of North American Archaeology project. (Find out more about these programs)
Advocacy & Leadership
We believe that data are for discovery and inspiration, not just management. We advocate for this approach in speaking engagements and publications and with prize competitions that encourage others to step up to the challenge of working with data. This work has won wide recognition. (See more)
Education & Training
We engage in education and training through workshops, lectures, and collaborative research projects with partners around the world. We recently launched a postdoctoral research program to expand number of people with experience in archaeological data. (more)
