Wapiti River and Pipestone Creek Site Map Correlation

Abstract

Description

Site documentation in the field of Paleontology is a very significant part of a day in the field. One of the first parts of documentation done when you’ve begun to excavate a site in the field is drawing site maps. Though these site maps are very valuable within the field of Paleontology, they give you a very narrow view of the site, in 1 meter square grids. This project worked to combat this, taking the individual square grids and piecing them together to form a full map of the site, widening your view of the site and allowing for you to see the broader picture of the specimens found at that location. This presentation will show the process gone through in order to prepare and assemble these maps, and some of the issues run into along the way.
