It was last updated on 2026-05-18 and is available via the www.datos.gov.co portal.

Use Cases

• Geospatial mapping and analysis of artifact distribution using Cood X_EPSG:9377 and Cood Y_EPSG:9377.
• Classifying sculptures by Periodo Cultural or Tipo de Bien using descriptive text from Descripción and Observaciones.
• Analyzing the provenance and excavation history of artifacts using Lugar de Procedencia, Año de Excavación, and Responsable de la Excavación.
• Linking administrative records for heritage objects using Código del Bien and Número de Registro.

Strengths

• Includes precise geospatial coordinates (Cood X_EPSG:9377, Cood Y_EPSG:9377) for location analysis.
• Provides multiple contextual fields like Periodo Cultural, Fechado Estimado, and Observaciones for rich artifact description.
• Data is structured for heritage management with unique identifiers (Código del Bien, Número de Registro).

Limitations
