The OASIS system is currently being reviewed by ADS with the aim of bringing the underlying technology up to date and provide a more flexible system for the variety of individuals and organisations who use it, from contractors and curators to museums and local societies. The OASIS project is discussed in more detail in section [C.7.3.|SectionC.7#C.7.3 OASIS (On-line AccesS to the Index of archaeological investigationS)]

Almost all HERs now make use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) which allow the capture, storage, manipulation, analysis, management and presentation of spatial information relating to the historic environment. These often link directly to the HER database but can also be stand-alone or integrated into corporate GIS systems. The most commonly used software are ArcGIS (ESRI) and MapInfo (Pitney Bowes), although there are numerous other systems available. More recently improved reliability and the development of functionality within free to use open source GIS software (for example systems such as QGIS) has meant that these are beginning to offer a viable alternative. More detail on the use of data in HERs can be found in section [C.11|SectionC.11].
