The key aim of ArchAIDE project is to help archaeologists in their daily work. ArchAIDE app aims to change the global practice of archaeology by allowing a user to quickly obtain information, by photographing a sherd, applying autorecognition technology to that photograph, and matching the sherd to items in the catalogue.
