State of the Art in Paleoenvironment Mapping for Modeling Applications in Archeology—Summary, Conclusions, and Future Directions from the PaleoMaps Workshop. Quaternary 2020, 3, 13.

A diverse set of talks ranging from geospatial data management, over field data acquisition and geiscientific research, to GIS based classifications and methods to derive, gather and compile GIS based paleoenvironment data, to a heterogeneous line up of presentation concerning modeling applications that make use of the GIS based paleoenvironment data.

The presentations led to very interesting and fruitful discussion and we are happy to share some of the discussed ideas and arguments to our interested peers in form of this open access publication summarizing the talks and also delivering some discussion and conclusions from the workshop.
