About Wessex Archaeology
Wessex Archaeology is the market leader in the provision of quality archaeological and heritage services, delivered from a UK wide network of offices. Established for over 40 years, Wessex offers an unrivalled range of services above ground, below ground and underwater. We work in partnership with planners, designers, developers and property managers to deliver practical solutions. With all your needs in one expert and trusted company you will find us responsive, reliable and professional. This complete service is delivered by four skilled and innovative teams: Geoservices, Heritage, Archaeology and Coastal & Marine.
Our Geomatics department is driven by the belief that high quality data has the power to transform our understanding of the world, get people excited about heritage and enable people to do their jobs better. We offer a wide range of GIS, photographic and survey services, including metric survey, 3D modelling, recording and analysis, of buildings, landscapes, monuments and artefacts. We utilise combinations of GNSS, TST, UAVs, photogrammetry and laser scanning to achieve a high quality product that meets the customer’s needs. Our services are suitable for any industry, but our deep understanding of heritage means that our work can be tailored to the specialist needs of the heritage sector.
Our Geoservices team also provide a wide range of geoarchaeological, environmental, and terrestrial and marine geophysics services.
Wessex Archaeology has a rigorous Quality Assurance procedure for all work undertaken, and has achieved ISO 9001 accreditation. Wessex Archaeology is a Registered Archaeological Organisation with the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (CIfA) and is a charitable company which puts sustainability and community engagement at its heart.
