GIS-material for the archaeological project: Östra Malmskogen - Local plan for industrial estate

The information in the abstract is translated from the archaeological report:
By request of the County Administrative Board and due to local planning, the Swedish National Heritage Board's Contract Archaeology Service, UV Öst, has performed a desk-based assessment and a field evaluation by Malmskogen, Rystad parish in the city and municipality of Linköping in April 2004. The local plan might affect several areas with known ancient monuments and the purpose was thus to determine whether there were any remains in the development area in question. The evaluations showed that there are traces of prehistoric and historical activity within the development area, but due to weather conditions and waterlogged fields it was not possible to completely delimit all archaeological remains.

Purpose:

The information in the purpose is translated from the archaeological report:
The purpose of the archaeological assessment was mainly to see to that no archaeological remains were damaged by the planned development. The aim was also to elucidate the limits of the topographically estimated archaeological sites within each survey area and to point out areas with no archaeological remains. The purpose of the field evaluation was to determine the type, intensity and extent of the archaeological remains and to document and, if possible, date the features and artefacts.

The ZIP file consist of GIS files and an Access database with information about trenches, features, finds and other metadata about the archaeological survey.

应县行政委员会（County Administrative Board）的要求，并基于地方规划，瑞典国家遗产委员会（Swedish National Heritage Board）下属的契约考古服务（Contract Archaeology Service）机构UV Öst于2004年4月在林雪平（Linköping）市及自治市的吕斯塔德（Rystad）教区马尔姆斯科根（Malmskogen）地区开展了桌面评估（desk-based assessment）与田野评估（field evaluation）。该地方规划可能影响若干已知古代遗迹（ancient monuments）区域，因此本次工作的目的是确定相关开发区域内是否存在任何遗存。评估结果显示，开发区域内存在史前及历史活动（prehistoric and historical activity）的痕迹，但受天气条件及水淹农田（waterlogged fields）影响，无法完全划定所有考古遗存的范围。

目的：

本部分目的信息译自考古报告：
考古评估（archaeological assessment）的主要目的是确保规划开发（planned development）不会损坏任何考古遗存。其目标还包括阐明各调查区域内地形学估算的考古遗址（topographically estimated archaeological sites）的边界，并指出无考古遗存的区域。田野评估的目的则是确定考古遗存的类型、强度及范围，记录相关遗迹与文物（features and artefacts），并在可能的情况下对其进行断代。

ZIP文件包含GIS文件及Access数据库，其中存有探沟（trenches）、遗迹、出土物（finds）及其他与考古调查（archaeological survey）相关的元数据（metadata）信息。
