The Dig Digital project is an Archaeological Archives Forum (AAF) initiative and represents the culmination of 10 years of research and collaboration. Managed and delivered by DigVentures, in partnership with the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (CIfA) and funded by Historic England, the aim of Dig Digital was to establish a methodology for digital archive compilation and its integration into archaeological working practices across the United Kingdom. This was achieved by designing a web-based resource, complete with innovative tools and guidance built around FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) principles, that is integrated within the existing regulatory framework for professional archaeological practice in the UK. The Dig Digital project provides a good example of a collaboratively designed resource that promotes sustainable practices and supports implementation in archaeological digital data management.
