presentation work for the DEA Bernal Pablo del Fresno on Monday, November 24 at 12 am, in the Graduate Hall Building Campus Las Nieves Alava, University of the Basque Country.

The Archaeological Geographic Information System (SIGARQ), intended as a tool to manage and analyze all that data from any type of archaeological intervention regardless of the nature of the asset or liability to study and work technique used in the intervention.

At the same time has to allow contextualize each of the interventions and results in a larger geographical context. Thus, the current project SIGARQ v 1.0, also implies an improvement of the system's potential in the face of asset management of the territory and studies of landscape character.

As more concrete objective, the SIGARQ v 1.0 is in the phase that we call Information Management, our priority is focused on presenting the data both for consultation and for their publication. However, the structure of the proposed system has implications which require to reconsider the registration process from the beginning, right from the start of data collection in the field.

This has conducted a review of concepts and archaeological methodology to bring it to the information system proposed what has come to creating a new protocol in the archaeological record. Sometimes, this effort has been accompanied by synthesizer conceptual development considerably.
