The Internet Database of Archaeological Fieldwork (IDAF, in Czech "Internetová databáze archeologických výzkumů" - IDAV) represents an unofficial branch administrative system - a state-wide register of fieldwork with anticipated archaeological excavations. Licensed organisations are, by means of the IDAF, informed about intended fieldwork, and they can also register their own archaeological projects in the database. Subsequently, the organisations inform the Institutes of Archaeology of the Czech Academy of Sciences of the commencement and conclusion of their field activities. The system was launched in 2009 and is administered by the Institute of Archaeology of the Czech Academy of Sciences, Prague. The Archaeological Map of the Czech Republic will include the IDAF system as an integral part (in the form of 'project' evidence) in 2016.
