Wisaard Q & A

Good day everyone! Hope to see you all soon at an upcoming Wisaard training! See here for dates and locations. We recently started working on a new feature for Wisaard, E- APE. You will soon be able to submit your APE online! Q: I am going to update and archaeology site form and don't know what Project # to put it under, what should I do? A: If the site form was submitted before we made the switch to online forms in September 2016 (which most of them were), the original form will not be associated with a Project #. We simply do not have that Archy form to Project link in our data. So you will not find the original form anywhere in a Project/Activity. Going forward, it is important to associate updated forms with existing Projects as appropriate. It is important to put the update with the Project that the update is associated with, which may or may not be the Project under which the original form was submitted. For example, KI01189 was originally submitted with Project # is 051209-10-FHWA (a number that was assigned in 2009). The form is now being updated as a result of the same Project so the update will go with that Project number. Since the original form is not within an Activity associated with that Project (because the form was submitted pre-online archy site form) you would simply create a new Activity to put the update in. Reminder: Archaeology site forms and historic property inventory forms should go in separate Activities.   Q: What happened to the isolate form? A: We have discontinued the isolate form. All archaeology sites and isolates should be recorded on the new Archaeology site form.
