The WODAN database is an integrated wood and charcoal database from Irish archaeological sites, with the possibility of international applications. The level of work in environmental archaeology has increased greatly in Ireland over the past ten years. At the moment, a large proportion of wood and charcoal results appear in appendices to stratigraphical reports or in unpublished internal reports and are not widely available, with some exceptions. A further problem is that, due to demand more material is being studied outside Ireland where these results are not being integrated into the Irish environmental record. This project aims to provide an pan European integrated solution to the sharing and standardisation of wood and charcoal data.

The Online Version of the WODAN web application will be available in Spring 2010
