[Museum] Inquérito sobre Colecções Digitais e IA em Arqueologia / Survey on Digital Collections and AI in Archaeology

[Vera Moitinho <veramoitinho@gmail.com>]

Dear colleagues,

The MAIA COST Action (https://maiacost.eu/), Working Group 2 "Digital Comparative Collections and AI Training Data for Archaeology", invites you to participate in a short survey exploring the availability, accessibility, documentation, licensing, and AI-readiness of digital archaeological collections.

The survey aims to identify current practices and challenges related to comparative collections and training data used in AI applications for archaeology. The results will contribute to the development of best-practice recommendations and future activities within MAIA.

We particularly encourage participation from archaeologists, museum professionals, heritage organisations, digital archivists, data stewards, repository managers, and researchers working with digital cultural heritage collections.

The survey takes approximately 5-10 minutes to complete.

We would be grateful if you could also share this survey with relevant colleagues and networks. The survey will remain open for responses until 31 October 2026.

Thank you for supporting MAIA and contributing to a better understanding of digital collections and AI in archaeology.

Kind regards,
