ArchE: A graph drawing system for archaeology

We present ArchE (Archaeological Editor), a system for processing and displaying archaeological data. ArchE checks these data for consistency, simplifies and displays them; for each of these steps ArchE offers a number of different algorithms. The interactive features (eg input, data editing and modification of the layout) are easy to handle. Furthermore, ArchE contains algorithms for focusing on user-defined aspects of the data.Apart from archaeological applications, ArchE can be used as a general graph drawing system.
