The use of GIS and other spatial technologies is now routine in many areas of archaeology although being routine does not, and should not, exclude innovative thinking and practice. This session will explore how digital technologies are encouraging and enabling new approaches to landscape archaeology. We would like to see papers covering the diverse areas of ‘landscape archaeology’, including: landscape management and specialisms like predictive modelling; landscape survey, mapping and interpretation; economic and social modelling at the landscape scale; and the theory and practice of trying to work with qualitative aspects of landscape such as perception, meaning and movement.
