Strategic Environmental Archaeology Database (SEAD)

Categories: Data Centres, Sweden

SEAD is an open access, internationally oriented and interdisciplinary national research data infrastructure for storing, managing, disseminating and analyzing empirical data on past human activity, biodiversity and long-term environmental and climate change.



The primary objectives of SEAD are to make environmental archaeology data available to the international research community, and to provide online tools to assist in the analysis of these data.

The SEAD project has created a web-accessible, GIS-ready database for environmental archaeology data.

The system allows researchers to study data on the interactions of past environments, climates and human impact, as well as study the implications of these for the present and future research agendas including cultural heritage, species and landscape conservation.

Empirical data from a large number of archaeological and Quaternary geological sites is now accessible online and provides the basis for a wide range of interdisciplinary studies, with more data being added continuously.
