Services for Archaeology and Heritage

LunaGeo helps archaeology and heritage teams manage project data, field observations, spatial layers, and reporting workflows using QGIS, PostGIS, Mergin Maps, and web mapping tools. We build practical GIS platforms for firms that need reliable project data without rebuilding workflows from scratch every time.

The Challenge

Archaeology and heritage projects often generate large amounts of spatial and field data. Survey areas, test pits, shovel tests, artifacts, features, photos, permits, land parcels, and reporting areas may be stored across disconnected folders, spreadsheets, GPS exports, shapefiles, and QGIS projects.

This creates common problems:

  • Project data is difficult to standardize
  • Field data collection is not standardized
  • Photos and observations are hard to connect to locations
  • Every project starts from scratch
  • Reporting is not automated
  • Data is difficult to review across multiple projects
  • Project managers lack a central system of record

LunaGeo helps archaeology and heritage teams build repeatable GIS workflows for field collection, project management, and reporting.

How LunaGeo Helps

We design and support open source GIS platforms for archaeology and heritage firms.

Our work can include:

  • Archaeology project database design
  • QGIS project templates
  • Mergin Maps field data collection
  • PostGIS setup and hosting
  • Data collection forms
  • Project, site, survey, artifact, and feature layers
  • Photo and document attachment workflows
  • Report map production
  • Web maps for project teams or clients
  • Staff training and support

Common archaeology GIS needs

Practical GIS help for archaeology and heritage teams.

Organize Project Data

Bring project layers, survey areas, shovel tests, finds, features, and reporting areas into one structured GIS platform.

Standardize Field Collection

Set up consistent field data collection with Mergin Maps, shared forms, required fields, and cleaner handoff from crews to office staff.

Clean Up Legacy Files

Sort out shapefiles, GPS exports, spreadsheets, photos, and QGIS projects so active and archived work is easier to manage.

Link Photos and Records

Connect photos, observations, forms, and feature records so project data is easier to review, map, and report on.

Improve Reporting Workflows

Prepare maps, tables, and project outputs from better-organized GIS data so reporting takes less manual cleanup.

Get Ongoing GIS Support

Receive hosting, maintenance, training, and practical GIS support for archaeology and heritage workflows as projects evolve.
