Granada

The XXXVIII Annual Conference on Computer Applications and Quantitative Methods in Archaeology will be held in the world famous city of Granada, Spain.
Granada is a historic city where visitors can enjoy a large number of diverse experiences from the different cultures that have lived in this city (romans, arabs, jews and christians).
Granada is said to be a fusion of cultures, and this idea matches completely with the aim of the CAA Conference: the interdisciplinary and complementary work of archaeologists, computer scientists and mathematicians. So, the title of the conference, Fusion of Cultures, refers both to the conference scope and to the spirit of the city that is proud to host it.
Typical CAA topics include:

  • agent-based models,
  • bioarchaeology,
  • CIDOC and other digital standards,
  • databases,
  • 3D data capture and modeling,
  • data management systems and other field applications,
  • GIS,
  • predictive modeling,
  • open source software in archaeology,
  • photogrammetry and imaging,
  • prospection and remote sensing,
  •  quantitative methods,
  • high precision surveying,
