Our Approach to Archaeology Kent Archaeological Projects (KAP) has become aware that archaeological factors play a critically important role on many sites, often due to archaeological specifications issued by local authorities as conditions of planning consent. We understand the challenges this presents to our clients and are committed to providing comprehensive and efficient solutions. The Issue There is a growing statutory requirement for site-specific archaeological desk-based research, walkover and geophysical surveys, evaluations, and extensive archaeological excavation before redevelopment or site disposal. Without prior knowledge of the archaeological potential and proper preparation, these requirements can cause significant disruption and delays, potentially jeopardizing the viability of the entire project. The Objective KAP conducts pre-planning application archaeological investigations on all types of sites to assess their archaeological potential. This allows for essential forward planning regarding finance, scheduling, and the necessary mitigation strategies required by the statutory authorities. We utilize the most appropriate techniques, ranging from non-intrusive magnetometery surveys to evaluation trenching, to provide an initial archaeological appraisal and determine the probable nature, extent, and significance of any archaeological remains, and how mitigation would affect any proposed redevelopment. The Solution Our professionally accredited staff boasts over twenty years of experience in the field and can effectively liaise with local authorities to agree on suitable and efficient mitigation measures, facilitating the discharge of archaeological conditions attached to planning consent. In many cases, minor modifications to a planned redevelopment can avoid costly and time-consuming archaeological work. After determining the probable type, extent, and overall significance of the archaeology and agreeing on a mitigation strategy with the relevant regulating body, KAP can undertake any required archaeological works to satisfy both the client and the archaeological authorities.

About Us DigitiseThis was established with the specific goal of providing archaeological consultancy firms with a specialized on-site archaeological surveying service. Our company, based in Kent, primarily operates in the South East, where we have been involved in archaeological projects of various types and sizes since 2006. We utilize the latest surveying technology in both commercial and research archaeology, offering competitive rates for both. We also provide off-site post-excavation digitizing and CAD work to produce high-quality graphics for archaeological reports and publications. Why Choose Us? Flexibility and Reliability We are a specialist company dedicated to archaeological surveying and associated graphics production. We adhere to standard archaeological drawing conventions during digitization but have always maintained flexibility to accommodate the diverse presentational styles of our clients. The unpredictable nature of archaeological site work means that features often appear unexpectedly (such as the discovery of a burial). We are available at short notice to conduct on-site surveys. Close communication between ourselves and our clients is crucial to ensure we understand their exact requirements. We are easily accessible, by phone or email, for any queries or necessary additions or alterations. Affordability We recognize that some large archaeological consultancy companies have their own in-house surveying teams, but we offer an alternative option by providing surveying services as needed, providing a more cost-effective solution. We also offer competitive rates to smaller and medium-sized companies who require surveying but may lack their own surveying expertise, equipment, or the time to undertake it. We understand that funds available for non-commercial research archaeology may be limited. Therefore, we offer reduced rates for groups and individuals undertaking this type of work. Local and National Reach For large archaeological companies not based in the South East, we offer an alternative to sending out an in-house surveyor long distances to cover sites far from their offices. This can be particularly beneficial for small sites requiring only a handful of points, where spending a significant portion of a day traveling becomes uneconomical. For companies outside the South East, we are available for on-site surveys, digitizing, and graphics production, which can be sent remotely via email or post. Meet the Team Jonathan Madden BA Before establishing digitisethis in 2006 with my brother, I worked as a land surveyor for a chartered survey firm in Kent for five years. During this time, I gained significant knowledge and experience in using GPS, TPS, HDS, and AutoCAD. I also have several years of experience as a field archaeologist. James Madden BSc MSc In addition to co-running digitisethis, I have been working for various archaeological units across Kent and the South-East for the past 10 years. More recently, this has included work as a project officer, managing large archaeological sites. I also worked for a small chartered survey firm before setting up digitisethis.
