Steven J. Yerka presented a three-minute talk summarizing the DINAA project and its goals at the 79th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology in Austin, TX, in April 2014. Yerka discussed the fact that while the distribution of archaeological data is not mirrored by current state delineations, it must be managed that way due to the reality of resource management responsibilities. However, DINAA is not meant to be a “black hole” where all SHPO data will reside, but rather a way to translate multiple/all state databases and hundreds of thousands of sites into a useful and engaging system that can be used by professionals, educators, and resource stewards to achieve learning and management goals more easily.
