In the Czech Republic, information on archaeological fieldwork and sites has been traditionally archived in the form of registers and card files at the archives run by the Institutes of Archaeology of the Czech Academy of Sciences. Although some data is still being archived in this way, the prevalence of digital content has completely transformed the way in which information is now organised and stored. The paper reports on a solution that has been chosen to comprehensively address this technological shift, mining nearly 30 years of collective experience in managing digital content (text documents, photographs, maps, plans) and overseeing administration and archiving systems. Great attention was paid to finding a technical solution that would align its data model and workflow to suit the nature of archaeological fieldwork practice. At the same time, priority was given to creating an infrastructure that would meet the needs of users while integrating professional and public interests. What follows is a report on the practical measures the Archaeological Information System of the Czech Republic has taken over the past 2 years and outlines future plans of applying big data to contemporary research.
