• Training in the use of the magnetometer
and creation of teams of amateur
geophysicists.
• Teach a geophysics course for community
archaeologists.
• Undertake surveys of Roman and Iron Age
sites including Verulamium.
• Create and sustain a community of
interested participants

• Successes
– Course great success and very popular
– Foerster mag works well (with quirks)
– Excellent survey of a number of sites
– Core team of competent surveyors
– Creation of cross-group collaborations
– Creation of CAGG
– New sites being added to list
– Requests for help coming in (getting known)
– Ver survey of use in management and promotion

• Still to do
– Write up completed surveys
– More site surveys
– Software training
– Report writing training
– Add GPR?
– Not yet independent
• Main problems
– Survey, especially access to dGPS to georeferencesurveys properly, access to map data.
– Logistics
