# The BORDERSCAPE Project WebGIS Repository: Description of Contents

Data are stored in a folder named `borderscape_webgis_data_v6.0.zip`.

Singular files are:
- `README.md`: a formatted text document (Markdown syntax) describing the contents of this repository.
- `sites.geojson`: a GeoJSON file with information on each archaeological site included in the webGIS.
- `borderscape_sites.csv`: the list of archaeological sites and their attributes from which the `sites.geojson` file was built for the webGIS, in the open CSV (comma separated values) format.
- `borderscape_archaeological_sites.xlsx`: the list of archaeological sites and their attributes. It contains the same information as `borderscape_sites.csv` as an Excel Workbook (Office Open XML)
- `flooding_nile.geojson`: a GeoJSON polygon file with information on Nile flood levels at 86m and 94.5m ASL.
- `borderscape_bibliography.bib`: A bibliography with all of the sources abbreviated in the `sites.csv` file.
. `merged_coronas_freegr.tif`: a GEOtif of the georeferenced CORONA imagery showing the Lower Nubian landscape prior to the construction of the Aswan High Dam.

Finally, a folder named `borderscape_data.zip` contains the following ZIP archives with the spatial (shapefiles) data:
- `borderscape_archaeological_sites.zip`: a ZIP archive of a shapefile showing all of the archaeological sites and their attributes used in the webGIS.
- `sites_phase1.zip`: a ZIP archive of a shapefile showing archaeological sites used in the webGIS from Phase 1.
- `sites_phase2.zip`: a ZIP archive of a shapefile showing archaeological sites used in the webGIS from Phase 2.
- `sites_phase3.zip`: a ZIP archive of a shapefile showing archaeological sites used in the webGIS from Phase 3.
- `sites_phase4.zip`: a ZIP archive of a shapefile showing archaeological sites used in the webGIS from Phase 4.
- `sites_phase5.zip`: a ZIP archive of a shapefile showing archaeological sites used in the webGIS from Phase 5.
- `sites_phase6.zip`: a ZIP archive of a shapefile showing archaeological sites used in the webGIS from Phase 6.
- `86m_flooding_contour.zip`: a ZIP archive of a shapefile showing flooded areas at 86m ASL.
- `94.5m_flooding_contour.zip`: a ZIP archive of a shapefile showing flooded areas at 94.5m ASL.
