Introduction
WallCAP, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, combined the ethos of community archaeology to meet key aims relating to the archaeological research and conservation and management of the Hadrian’s Wall World Heritage Site. Alongside the two main strands of the project, Heritage at Risk and Stone Sourcing & Dispersal, another key part of the project was the construction of a bespoke GIS for Hadrian’s Wall. This WallGIS, with the underlying database and tables constructed to capture details and features specific to the Wall, brings together over 150 years of research and data about Hadrian’s Wall. The WallGIS archive provides access to the underlying database files, associated GIS files, and further information about the database. The WallGIS data can be downloaded for use in further research or explored through the WallCAP: The Hadrian's Wall Community Archaeology Project web interface.
