Bases de Données et représentation spatiale des mosaïques romaines du Maroc

Abstract

Databases and Spatial Representation of Moroccan Roman Mosaics Morocco boasts a rich and extensive heritage of Roman mosaics. Each of these mosaics is assigned a very detailed record documenting their discovery, dimensions, state of conservation, and so on. A good number of the mosaics have been removed from their original site and are currently in storerooms awaiting restoration. The objective of this project is to create a GIS database that will collate all the records for each of these mosaics. Geo-referencing software (ArcGIS) can be used to view the mosaics in situ. The creation of such a database will make it easier to access information about each mosaic and to facilitate management and decision making.
