Plot (also called
NewPlot) |
|
Plot is a Windows
based GIS for working with piece provenienced artifact data
(replaces our CC-Plot DOS program). It allows the user to map any group
of squares or levels, to color code the map by artifact type or
level, and to link the artifacts on this map to their respective
records in associated tables.
We wrote this program to deal with total station and
analysis data from the Paleolithic sites of Fontéchevade and Pech de l'Azé
IV. Others have adapted it to their own sites. The install
includes two data sets (Microsoft Access format). One is an empty
database with minimal database structure. The other is a sample from
one unit at Combe-Capelle Bas. You can download the full
Combe-Capelle data set from
our web site.
Converting your own data
This link describes how to convert your Microsoft Access to our
format.
Note
This version of the program has a few options that are particular to our
own work removed to make it easier to use and to remove potential bugs.
That said, there are certainly bugs in this version. When you find
them, feel free to let us know and we will attempt to address them.
There is no manual as yet.
Also, note that the download is quite large. Future program updates
will be much smaller.
New Update - Summer 2005
We have posted the latest versions of this program as of summer 2005.
There is only a NewPlot program in this setup (no smaller Plot.exe
program). Note that in an effort to standardize our various
programs, we have made some changes to the required fields in the
database. For instance, the field "Square" is now called "Unit".
This version of NewPlot will check the database on start-up and will make
changes to the database to make it compatible. We strongly
recommend, therefore, that you first run this program with a copy of your
database.
If the install does not work, please let us know (mcpherron@eva.mpg.de).. |
