DELIVERABLES
Workpackage 1 - City , governance and citizen
Deliverable D4 - The accessibility project as seen through an initial survey of the views of the participants involved (deliverables list)
Task n°: 1.1.
Task leader: CUGS
Task partners: CUGS, IN SITU, ICUB, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, UAM
Authors: Tatiana Hachimi and Catherine Zwetkoff, in collaboration with Jorge Ruiz Jimenez, Noèlia Sanz and Valérie Wilson
Date: August 2003
This report consists of an initial survey about the concept of the accessibility project and the issues raised by it from its development to its final stages, as established from a (non-representative) sample of 45 members of the AVEC and ICOMOS networks, a small number of the Advisory Board and other key people. The qualitative analysis of the results has revealed the innovative nature of the concept of an accessibility project and also its complexity. The analysis is divided into four major themes: enhancement and its meanings, the meaning of accessibility, the participants in an accessibility project and the decision making process. Each theme is further subdivided into sub-themes.
The APPEAR research must result in a set of recommendations, the interest of which is directly linked to its possible adoption by the participants concerned. The recommendations must correspond with the needs of those participants and be applicable in the context of particular projects in order to be accepted. This work has therefore attempted to understand what the participants are saying about their existing methods, their expectations – do they match up with the accessibility project? – and to understand the context and the processes of the emergence and spread of procedures coinciding with the requirements of the accessibility project.

Deliverable D7 - Preliminary report on case studies in relation to the decision-making process (deliverables list)
Task n°: 1.2.
Task leader: CUGS
Task partners: CUGS, IN SITU, ICUB, AVEC, ICOMOS, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, IN EXTENSO, UAM
Authors: Catherine Zwetkoff, Tatiana Hachimi
Date: Mai 2003
This report is conducting a preliminary study on the Rose Theatre in London. This field work reveals details in the key moments of an accessibility project. This information was collected during interviews with stakeholders in this accessibility project as well as from different press files, texts and books about the Rose. The analysis of these data reveals several obstacles such as a multiplication of stakeholders, a lack of communication, conflicts that delayed or even hindered the process of the project. All these data will finally be used to set up the empirical basis for the recommendations of the APPEAR guide.

Deliverable D8 - Preliminary report on evaluation of national legislation (deliverables list)
Task n°: 1.2.
Task leader: CUGS
Task partners: CUGS, IN SITU, ICUB, AVEC, ICOMOS, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, IN EXTENSO, UAM
Authors: Pierre Hupet, Catherine Zwetkoff
Date: December 2005
This report aims to produce a non-exhaustive description of the framework of good practice, recommended by the international decision-making bodies. It is presented as a summary description of the principal trends driving national policies and their legal interpretation. Through the information collected, it has been possible to identify the principal orientations, constraining or otherwise, such as they emerge from texts produced by the international decision-making bodies. These international guidelines will be with the political, administrative and legal options adopted at national level on a certain number of themes around which these options are structured (see deliverable D14).

Deliverable D9 - Prototype of a tool for monitoring the sociocultural impact of accessibility projects (deliverables list)
Task n°: 1.3.
Task leader: UAM
Task partners: CUGS, IN SITU, ICUB, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, UAM
Authors: Mikel Asensio, Jorge Ruiz Jimenez
Date: Mai 2004
This report presents the prototype of a tool composed of techniques that will allow managers of enhanced archaeological sites to assess the sociocultural impact of their projects. This prototype was developed based on a pilot study carried out on the “Casa de Hippolytus” site in Alcalá de Henares (Spain). The obtained results serve to: show the main content packages to be assessed, propose examples of techniques for collecting data, illustrate analysing procedures, and check if techniques as a whole can provide a global picture of the sociocultural impact.
The application of the prototype on this pilot site aimed to test tools – a series of techniques specifically created on the basis of existing models and developed in the framework of the research – and suggest hypotheses useful for the production of the final tool.

Deliverable D13 - Final report on case studies in terms of decision-making process (deliverables list)
Task n°: 1.2.
Task leader: CUGS
Task partners: CUGS, IN SITU, ICUB, AVEC, ICOMOS, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, IN EXTENSO, UAM
Authors: Tatiana Hachimi and Catherine Zwetkoff in collaboration with all partners
Date: December 2005
The report presents the key moments and stakeholders of the decision-making process observed on the common cases of the Gallo-Roman museum Vesunna (Périgueux, France) and the four Roman sites of Saragossa (Spain). As for the data collected for the study of the Rose Theatre (London, United Kingdom) – the results have already been presented in the first report, deliverable D7 – the focus is on the pros and cons of the strategic management and planning approach to cultural heritage projects. In the specific context of real cases, what are the tools that have been successfully used or could have been mobilised to solve the problems, which have been identified? At what stage? With what actors?

Deliverable D15 - Tool for monitoring the cultural impact of accessibility projects (deliverables list)
Task n°: 1.3.
Task leader: UAM
Task partners: CUGS, IN SITU, ICUB, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, UAM
Authors: Mikel Asensio, Jorge Ruiz
Date: December 2005
This report presents a tool composed of techniques that will allow managers of enhanced archaeological sites to assess the cultural impact of their projects. This prototype was developed based on a full study on 8 european sites: Ruta de Caesaraugusta (Saragosse, Sapin), Vesunna (Périgueux, France), Rose Théâtre (Londres, United Kingdom), Casa de Hyppolitus (Alcalá de Henares, Spain), Crypta Balbi (Rome, Italy), St-Lorenzo (Aoste, Italy), Coudenberg (Bruxelles, Belgium) et St-Pierre et Paul (Pécs, Hungary). The results of these studies are available on the deliverable D19.
The obtained results served to:
- Show the main content packages to be assessed,
- Propose examples of techniques for collecting data,
- Illustrate analysing procedures,
- Check if techniques as a whole can provide a global picture of cultural impact.
The application of these techniques specifically designed/created on the basis of existing models and developed in the framework of the research have permitted to confirm our hypotheses and show that the tool work well.

Deliverable D16 and D21 - Typology and evaluation of existing decision-making processes, considering the socio-cultural impact; precise end user’s needs specification (D16). Introductory formulation of action program (D21) (deliverables list)
Task n°: 1.4. (D16) et 1.5. (D21)
Task leader: CUGS (1.4.) and ICOMOS (1.5.)
Task partners: CUGS, ICUB, ICOMOS, UAM (1.4.) ; CUGS, IN SITU, ICUB, ICOMOS, UAM (1.5.)
Authors: Catherine Zwetkoff and Tatiana Hachimi in collaboration with all partners
Date: December 2005
This report presents a logical structure to the decision-making process based on strategic management methodology taken up in the Australian ICOMOS Burra Charter. It is followed by a typology of tools to assist end-users though the decision-making process.
The sequences of the cases under study – Rose Theatre in London, Vesunna in Perigueux and the four sites of the Caesaraugusta road in Saragossa – have been identified in terms of strategic management principles to evaluate what problems have/might have been or have/might not have been successfully solved by a strategic management approach.
A set of guidelines completes the description of the tools. They are meant to optimise their efficiency by taking into account both their specificity and the context of their implementation.

Deliverable D22 - Identification of desirable community orientations (deliverables list)
Task n°: 1.5.
Task leader: ICOMOS
Task partners: CUGS, IN SITU, ICUB, ICOMOS, UAM
Authors: Jean-Louis Luxen, Consuelo León Lozano
Date: December 2005
On the basis of the collected information about the European policies and procedures, both at national level and at the level of the European Union, on the one hand, and on the basis of the lessons of the APPEAR experience, on the other hand several recommendations are proposed to the European Commission concerning possible future actions or research works.
The deliverable asks for a better coordination and dissemination of available information and documentation, in order to avoid duplication of researches. It also advocates the adoption of specific norms and standards, given the particularities of cultural heritage conservation/restoration. It further suggests some works to be developed on new materials and their compatibility with existing fabrics and on the whole field of diagnostic and monitoring. The deliverable identifies also several research needs concerning energy use and environment protection related to archaeological sites, as well as urban and territorial dimension of heritage enhancement. Finally, some issues related to the management of the heritage sites are briefly exposed.

Workpackage 2 - City, archaeology and citizen
Deliverable D31 - Enhancement of urban archaeological sites: the current situation (deliverables list)
Authors: Jacques Teller and Sophie Lefert, edited by Anne Warnotte and Mireille Fohn (IN SITU)
Date: May 2003
This report is the result of research carried out prior to the launch of the APPEAR Project. Facing the diversity of skills of the different project partners, it was useful to provide a common reference point for the Consortium and to give each person an initial analysis of the issue before taking up more specific tasks. The research aimed to provide a broad overview of the current state of knowledge about conservation, museum display, urban and architectural integration and the exploitation of urban archaeological sites. As defined by the APPEAR Project, the “accessibility project” is a subject which is not covered as such in the literature. To our knowledge, no reference exists that deals with the issue of the enhancement of archaeological remains in European towns in a transversal and integrated way. This report proposes a combination of various approaches in order to reach a clear perception of the issues linked to this matter.

Deliverable D5 - The accessibility project. Conservation, integration, enhancement and exploitation: initial identification of participants’ needs (deliverables list)
Task n°: 2.1.
Task leader : RAVA
Task partners: CUGS, IN SITU, ICUB, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, IN EXTENSO, UAM
Authors: Pierre Diaz Pedregal, Mireille Fohn, Sophie Lefert, Jacques Teller, Anne Warnotte, in collaboration with Mauro Cortelazzo, Jorge Ruiz Jimenez, Noèlia Sanz and Gianfranco Zidda
Date: August 2003
This report provides an understanding of the nature of an accessibility project as perceived by the potential users of the resources developed within the framework of the APPEAR research. The results were gathered through a series of interviews and a written questionnaire. On one hand, their analysis has enabled the development of a framework for the research tasks which will concentrate on the different skills bases set into motion during an accessibility project. Basic theories have been defined and the lines to follow during the case studies have been identified. On the other hand, this analysis has led to the development of the first draft of a check-list of the human, functional and environmental factors likely to interact with aspects relating to the conservation, integration, enhancement and exploitation of a site throughout the duration of an accessibility project. These check-lists will provide an aide-mémoire of the issues that participants in accessibility projects must bear in mind right from the outset of such projects.

Deliverable D10 - Prototype of a method for analysing the urban and architectural integration of archaeological sites (deliverables list)
Task n°: 2.2.
Task leader : CUGS
Task partners: CUGS, IN SITU, ICUB, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, IN EXTENSO
Authors: Sophie Lefert, Jacques Teller
Date: Mai 2004
This report aims to analyse the architectural solutions proposed within the framework of projects enhancing urban archaeological remains. It develops a method allowing the study of the interactions between the remains and their environment as far as functional, visual and formal aspects are concerned. The analysis is based on the study of both the appropriateness of the adopted architectural solution (accessibility, functional requirements and security) and the project performances regarding its integration in the urban context (visibility, accessibility, integration in the landscape).
The report includes the first steps of an analysis method for organising the great variety of solutions adopted for the architectural protective structure used for the sites through the development of two complementary tools: a reference database of European sites and an inventory of the decisive elements specific to the architectural and urban integration. Both tools are aimed at helping decision-makers and other stakeholders involved to consider the different solutions applicable in the context with which they are faced. Their development is based on the production of an analytical framework that makes it possible to structure as clearly as possible the information to be collected during the study of the integration of a site in its environment. The structure and content of this framework as well as the first results of its application to a sample of 17 pilot case studies in Belgium, Germany, the United Kingdom, Spain, the Netherlands and France are presented in the report.

Deliverable D11 - Typology and prototype of methodological procedures pertaining to conservation policy (deliverables list)
Task n°: 2.3.
Task leader : IN EXTENSO
Task partners: IN SITU, ICUB, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, IN EXTENSO
Authors: Sandrine Le Bouëtté, Pierre Diaz Pedregal
Date: July 2004
This report will present a typology of methodological procedures pertaining to conservation policy and a prototype of the procedure for dealing with a chosen degradation factor. Following the degradation factors preliminary list established in report D5 by end users, with additions and restructuring by research partners, we will propose a first global approach to the conservation process. This global process will give rise to a hierarchical degradation factors list, a factors study procedure and a factor practical data record prototype. Methodological procedure for each degradation factor will follow four main sequences: the identification of studied factor parameters, action mode analysis, definition of correction means and proposition of monitoring politics. The factor data records will then follow the same structure, more or less matching the different phases of an accessibility project from the preliminary studies to the site and management phases.

Deliverable D12 - Typology and prototype of methodological procedures useful for elaborating site enhancement and exploitation concept (deliverables list)
Task n°: 2.4.
Task leader : ICUB
Task partners: IN SITU, ICUB, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, UAM
Authors: Mikel Asensio, Laia Colomer, Antoni Nicolau, Jorge Ruiz, Noèlia Sanz
Date: Mai 2004
This report includes the first outline of the methodological procedures in order to accomplish a successful archaeological site enhancement.
First, it includes the first study case, Casa de Hippolytus, Spain, which has served to test whether our research methodology works properly out and fits with the aims of the investigation relating to the enhancement and exploitation of a site. This analyse has also permitted to make adjustments to the analytical tools, both the registration form and the questionnaires. After it, we will apply this successful research method to the entire archaeological site selected.
Secondly, the document includes a first step on the definition of the methodological protocol for enhancement of archaeological sites, including the study and definition of contexts and circumstances that define the site.

Deliverable D17 - Method of analysing architectural and urban integration of archaeological sites (deliverables list)
Task n°: 2.1.
Task leader : CUGS
Task partners: CUGS, IN SITU, ICUB, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, IN EXTENSO
Authors: Sophie Lefert, Jacques Teller
Date: December 2006
The integration of archaeological relics within contemporary urban networks is considered necessary by both players in the heritage sector, who see it as a useful solution to maintaining continuity with the past, and by town planning policy makers ever preoccupied by the running and development of the agglomeration. The public itself is more and more conscious of conservation and on site presentations of witnesses to the past. Finally, the trend is for archaeological relics to assume considerable importance for local communities in terms of the spectacular growth of the tourism economy.
That being so it is today understood that in most cases an optimal conservation of archaeological relics cannot be achieved without putting in place a protective envelope. The designing of an architectural envelope must therefore be seen as a complex process whose aim is to respond equally to the need to conserve and protect archaeological relics, to the necessities relating to the running of the site (use, accessibility, safety, etc.) and to the demands of formal and visual integration in the urban environment. The site must be placed within its contemporary framework, which is to say continuity must be achieved with the city’s other structures, in terms of landscape integration, signposting and readability, whilst always respecting criteria relating to authenticity and ‘distinguishability’.
Within the framework of this deliverable we will lay out the method we have conceived to analyse the architectural and urban integration of protective structures for archaeological relics in an urban environment as well as the results achieved after three years of research.

Deliverable 19 - Report on socio-cultural impact of accessibility projects (deliverables list)
Task n°: 2.4.
Task leader : ICUB
Task partners: IN SITU, ICUB, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, UAM
Authors: Mikel Asensio, Laia Colomer, Antoni Nicolau, Jorge Ruiz, Noèlia Sanz
Date: Juin 2006
This document is a compilation of different study cases that have been carried out for the evaluation of the socio-cultural impact of archaeological sites opened to the public. For doing the research, firstly, we have analysed the museography that serves to present and to communicate the scientific contents of the sites. After, we have established the impact of the museography upon the visitors and, also, upon the urban environment that surrounds the site.
This analyse has been applied to several sites: Casa de Hyppolitus (Alcalá de Henares, Spain), Museos del Foro, del Puerto, de las Termas and del Teatro (Zaragoza, Spain), Vesunna (Périgueux, France), Rose Theatre (London, England), San Laurenzo (Aosta, Italy) and Crypta Balbi (Rome, Italy). The results have allowed the elaboration of the delivery D20.

Deliverable D20 - Methodological procedures, with indicators, useful for elaborating site enhancement and exploitation concept (deliverables list)
Task n°: 2.4.
Task leader : ICUB
Task partners: IN SITU, ICUB, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, UAM
Authors: Mikel Asensio, Laia Colomer, Antoni Nicolau, Jorge Ruiz, Noèlia Sanz
Date: December 2005
This document presents a methodological corpus for the enhancement of the urban archaeological sites. Following the results of deliverable D19 study cases, we present a series of recommendations for the correct articulation of the presentation of the scientific contents of the archaeological sites to the public. These recommendations are of two types. The methodological ones outline the decision process to follow for the elaboration of an interpretation plan, describing the different key elements that have an important role and their interrelations. The operative recommendations have been summarised in different cards that offer practical advices to increase the effectiveness of interpretation elements (showcases, panels, audiovisuals, etc.)

Deliverable D23 - Operational organisation chart of resources produced in the context of functional, environmental, educational and socio-cultural approach study (deliverables list)
Task n°: 2.5.
Task leader : ICOMOS
Task partners: CUGS, IN SITU, ICUB, ICOMOS, ENGLISH HERITAGE, IN EXTENSO, UAM
Authors: Jean-Louis Luxen and Consuelo León Lozano in collaboration with all partners
Date: December 2005
The objective of deliverable 23, which is an interim report on the APPEAR guide development, is to link together and to give structure to the methodological and practical resources previously produced by the research carried out on functional, environmental, educational and socio-cultural approaches, in the form of an operational flowchart. This chart will provide the necessary key elements to be introduced first into the logical structure of the decision-making process during its development and finally into the APPEAR guide. To reach this objective, close coordination and integration of the results produced in the various fields of expertise is essential. This requires the adjustment of the results obtained at the end of the thematic research to make them compatible with the sequential structure recommended for the realisation of an enhancement project. This approach emphasizes the multi and inter-disciplinary nature of any enhancement process.

Workpackage 3 - Evaluation and validation of results
Deliverable D2 - Results evaluation procedure for the APPEAR project (deliverables list)
Task n°: 3.1.
Task leader : ENGLISH HERITAGE
Task partners : CUGS, IN SITU, ICUB, AVEC, ICOMOS, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, IN EXTENSO, UAM
Authors : Mireille Fohn and Valerie Wilson, in collaboration with Consuleo Leòn Lozano
Date: August 2003
All projects require some form of assessment to ensure they are delivering the expected results in the most effective way. This report gives details of the evaluation procedure developed for the APPEAR Project to ensure that the results conform to the following criteria: their relevance to the needs identified on the ground, their adherence to the aims of the project, and their scientific quality and applicability on the ground.
The results are submitted at regular intervals to two complementary review panels: the Advisory Board consisting of independent experts selected on the basis of their knowledge and experience in the field of accessibility projects, and the Local Authorities Representatives who represent the views of the potential users of the end product of the research.

Deliverable D24 - Report on results evaluation by the Advisory Board and Local Authorities Representatives (deliverables list)
Task n°: 3.2. and 3.3.
Task leader : ICOMOS
Task partners: CUGS, IN SITU, ICUB, AVEC, ICOMOS, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, IN EXTENSO, UAM
Authors: Jean-Louis Luxen, Consuelo León Lozano
Date: December 2005
ICOMOS is the APPEAR project partner specifically responsible for evaluating the results produced throughout the research phase. This evaluation aims to ensure both the scientific relevance of these results by using a comprehensive approach and their adaptability to specific local needs thanks to a confrontation with the reality on the ground. To achieve this, an evaluation procedure based on regular consultation of two complementary, multidisciplinary and multinational groups – the Advisory Board and the Representatives of Local Authorities – has been developed. Deliverable D24 is a synthesis of the evaluation process. It brings together the results of both consultations in order to compare the views of professionals and representatives from public authorities involved in the enhancement of urban European archaeological sites.

Workpackage 4 - Dissemination and exploitation of results
Deliverable D1 - Inventory of urban subsoil enhanced archaeological sites for the selection of case studies (deliverables list)
Task n°: 4.4.
Task leader: ICUB
Task partners: CUGS, IN SITU, ICUB, IN EXTENSO
Authors: Mireille Fohn, Marianne Tinant and Anne Warnotte in collaboration with all partners
Date: August 2003
This initial inventory contains entries for 56 covered or partly covered urban archaeological sites which have been enhanced or are in the process of enhancement. The aim was to provide a geographically representative sample of existing practices to enable the partners responsible for the case studies to select suitable examples for study. Information about each site was obtained from those responsible for the sites, relating to the following themes: decision making process, socio-cultural impact, architectural and urban integration, conservation, enhancement and exploitation. The inventory represents the first stage in the development of a database of existing practices which will be one of the main products of the research.
An introduction to the inventory, a summary list of sites and an example of a record sheet (for the Guildhall Amphitheatre) are available online. A CD-Rom version of the inventory is available through insitu@win.be.

Deliverable D28 - Proceedings of the APPEAR international symposium (deliverables list)
Task n°: 4.3.
Task leader: ICOMOS
Task partners: CUGS, IN SITU, ICUB, AVEC, ICOMOS, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, IN EXTENSO, UAM
Authors: Jean-Louis Luxen, Consuelo Léon Lozano and Ana Dieste Barrientos
Date: November 2005
This document constitutes the proceedings of the international symposium organised in the framework of the APPEAR project, on 4-5 October in Brussels. This symposium aimed to bring together professionals and representatives from public authorities concerned with the enhancement of urban archaeological sites and to present the state of progress of the research - in particular the first draft of the APPEAR guide. This event was the opportunity to organise a debate and exchanges between these stakeholders and the project partners. Different themes were developed through targeted presentations: conservation, interpretation and museum display, socio-cultural impact, architectural and urban integration, feasibility, economic and social effects. Each presentation was illustrated with case studies of urban European archaeological sites demonstrating a variety of situations.
The Proceedings are presented in two parts that can be downloaded separately:
- The first part (deliverable) is a global document with an introductory note, a synthesis of the different sessions, the abstracts of all the presentations and the list of participants. It is available in three languages: English, French and Spanish.
- The second part (or the appendices), include the complete texts of the presentations in the original language (English, French or Spanish). These texts, identified by the session's number and the speaker's name, can be downloaded separately.

Workpackage 5 - Active co-ordination and project management
Deliverable D3 and D6 - Common reference framework (glossary) - statements 1 and 2 (deliverables list)
Task n°: 5.1.
Taskleader: CUGS
Taskpartners: CUGS, IN SITU, AVEC, ICOMOS
Authors: Tatiana Hachimi and Catherine Zwetkoff, in collaboration with all partners
Date: Mai 2004
The APPEAR project is based on a multidisciplinary approach that brings searchers to co-operate in a shared process of common result production. In order to implement such a plurality, the Consortium is involved in the building of a glossary that relies on an iterative method of learning, the Delphi process. It aims to develop common understanding and cross-knowledge between different disciplines. Partners have been invited twice to give definitions for several concepts that were selected because of their importance and their lack of univocity. D3 and D6 reveal the evolutive nature of the process through the different steps that lead to a first version of the glossary. Later some "fine tuning" will bring a final version.

Deliverable 25 - Delphi method: developments and adaptable protocol intended for end-users, in order to encourage communication effectiveness and integration of respective knowledge (deliverables list)
Task n°: 5.1.
Taskleader: CUGS
Taskpartners: CUGS, IN SITU, AVEC, ICOMOS
Authors: Tatiana Hachimi and Catherine Zwetkoff in collaboration with all partners
Date: December 2005
At the conclusion of the application of the Delphi method, it is now a matter of assessing it as a tool for learning and for the development of a common language.
During the iterative phases of this process, the aim of which is the mutual understanding of each other and which allows the interchange of knowledge between the different disciplines, the original objectives have evolved. Many of the objectives have been reached. Others have been modified, sometimes leading to positive and unexpected results. Yet others have proved unattainable. The method is therefore initially the subject of analysis as a tool specific to the APPEAR Consortium.
The time has also come, at the end of the APPEAR research, to assess the Delphi method as a potential tool available to those wishing to implement a “climate of interdisciplinarity” conducive to the pursuit of a project for the enhancement of an urban archaeological site.

Deliverable 30/1 - Format prototype of the APPEAR guide (deliverables list)
Task n°: 5.3.1.
Taskleader: IN SITU
Taskpartners: CUGS, AVEC, ENGLISH HERITAGE
Authors: Mireille Fohn, Anne Warnotte
Date: Mai 2004
The APPEAR guide is one of the main results of the research. It is expected to be an efficient, practical, user-friendly and useful management tool for implementing accessibility projects, from the idea to the opening of the site to the public and its day to day operation. This deliverable is the fruit of the first thought given to the construction of this guide. It provides a summarized structure proposal as well as broad guidelines for the content of the different chapters. As it stands, it should be considered as a mere proposal aimed at generating reflection and discussions.
This work has launched the development of a framework within which the tools and resources produced by the Consortium will be able to lie and be organized harmoniously and in an operational way. Along the research, this framework should make it possible to progressively structure and integrate the obtained results in the various disciplinary fields and, conversely, these should contribute to and direct the reflection regarding the development of this framework.

Deliverable 30/2 - Format of the APPEAR Guide (deliverables list)
Task n°: 5.3.1.
Taskleader: IN SITU
Taskpartners: CUGS, ENGLISH HERITAGE
Authors: Anne Warnotte, Marianne Tinant
Date: April 2005
This report details progress on the structure of the APPEAR guide and the development of its contents. Its production has two objectives: testing and developing the first draft previously elaborated and continuing deliberations on the development of a format suitable for a practical and user-friendly tool to manage urban archaeological remains from the emergence of the initial enhancement idea to the opening of the site to the public and its routine management.
It is to be noted that the Consortium decided to take a different methodological approach from that previously proposed (see deliverable D30/1). Rather than concentrating on a thematic structure, it chose a sequential structure. This kind of structure works better for a guide which aims to be a usable tool and places more emphasis on the inter-disciplinary nature of the enhancement process.
As well as the methodological aspects, this report includes a draft introduction of the guide and a draft version of one of its parts, devoted to the issues relating to an enhancement project. Follows the first attempt at arranging the APPEAR method, structured according to a sequential process.

Deliverable 30/3 - The draft of the APPEAR Guide (deliverables list)
Task n°: 5.3.2.
Taskleader: IN SITU
Taskpartners: CUGS, ICUB, RAVA, ENGLISH HERITAGE, IN EXTENSO
Date: September 2005
This document represents part of the practical guide that will be delivered at the end of the project. It is considered as a working document and is the version of the guide presented during the International Symposium.
It was produced on the basis of the framework developed in D30/2 and the contributions provided by the partners relating to their own field of expertise. IN SITU was responsible for ensuring the consistency of all this information within a single document.
It comes in two parts: the first is devoted to the presentation of the suggested management method for the realisation of an enhancement project and the first two phases of the sequential process. The second part is dedicated to three of the case studies carried out during the research by the partners in the different fields of expertise.
We would be very grateful to receive your comments or suggestions on this draft of the APPEAR guide, at the following e-mail address: insitu@win.be
