Commercial Consultancy

Advanced Digitisation, Material Analysis, and Strategic Heritage Solutions.

Core Services

High-Fidelity Artefact & Site Scanning: Utilising field photogrammetry and advanced 3D scanning to create precise, metrologically accurate digital records of archaeological features, structures, and finds.

Digital Reconstruction & Asset Creation: Transforming fragmented material evidence or degraded structural remains into highly detailed, accurate 3D historical reconstructions for research analysis, archiving, and public museum displays.

Elemental & Structural Composition: Providing advanced elemental and chemical characterisation of artefacts utilizing industry-standard laboratory instrumentation:
- SEM-EDS (Scanning Electron Microscopy with Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy) for micro-structural surface analysis and elemental mapping.
- pXRF (Portable X-ray Fluorescence) for rapid, non-destructive compositional screening in the lab or directly on-site.
- Raman Spectroscopy & XRD (X-ray Diffraction) for precise mineralogical, pigment, and molecular compound identification

Condition Assessment Report: Delivering rigorous, scientific reports for conservation planning, helping institutions understand how environmental factors are impacting stone, metal, timber, or textiles.
- Non-Invasive Microscopic Assessment: Executing high-resolution microscope photography and macro-imaging to analyse microscopic surface wear, tool marks, manufacturing techniques, and early-stage degradation without altering the artefact's physical integrity.

Field Excavation & Supervision: Drawing on extensive experience as a public field archaeologist to deliver skilled stratigraphic excavation, context recording, technical drawing, and site photography.

Post-Excavation Processing & Assessment: Managing small-finds logging, environmental processing, and initial material assessments directly from the field to transition assets smoothly into laboratory workflows.

Community Body Co-Ordination: Partnering with local history groups, heritage trusts, and amateur archaeology societies to design, supervise, and execute community-led heritage projects.

Knowledge Exchange: Guiding community volunteers through proper field techniques, archival research, and the basics of digital heritage recording, ensuring local projects meet professional standards.

Field Schools & Technical Workshops: Delivering practical training for archaeology students, field schools, or community groups. Specialised modules include Introduction to Field Photogrammetry & 3D Recording and Understanding Materials Science in Archaeology.

Special Interest & Heritage Societies: Immersive, expertly researched lectures for historical societies, museum members, and heritage networks on material culture, advanced digitisation, and specific archaeological eras.

Post-Excavation Lab Support: Providing contracted, non-destructive material science analysis (SEM-EDS, pXRF, Raman, XRD) and high-resolution microscope photography for characterisation of high-value small finds.

Field Support: Providing experienced, fully qualified field archaeologists for stratigraphic excavation, site supervision, and advanced on-site recording.

Digital Preservation Teams: Partnering with curators and conservators to generate metrologically accurate 3D digital scans and photorealistic digital reconstructions for conservation archives, virtual exhibitions, and research.

Conservation Management: Delivering non-invasive microscopic assessments and chemical composition mapping to aid in artifact condition reporting and long-term preservation planning.

Public Archaeology Initiatives: Designing, managing, and executing community-led excavation or recording projects, ensuring all field operations meet professional and institutional standards.

Digital Archiving Projects: Helping local societies digitise, reconstruct, and safeguard their regional heritage assets using accessible, cutting-edge workflows.

Field School Directors: Providing specialised on-site modules or guest instruction in field photogrammetry, 3D scanning, and digital finds recording.

Educational Organisers: Delivering custom workshops, academic lectures, and curriculum-aligned programming that bridge the gap between practical fieldwork, material science, and public storytelling.
