Geoinformatics is especially critical within the Caribbean where site destruction is intense due to storm surges, hurricanes, ocean and riverine erosion, urbanization, industrialization, and agriculture, as well as commercial development along the very waterfronts 410 0$aCaribbean archaeology and ethnohistory. 606 $aIndians of the West Indies$xAntiquities 606 $aArchaeological geology$zCaribbean Area 606 $aExcavations (Archaeology)$xGeographic information systems$zCaribbean Area 607 $aCaribbean Area$xAntiquities 615 0$aIndians of the West Indies$xAntiquities. 615 0$aArchaeological geology 615 0$aExcavations (Archaeology)$xGeographic information systems 676 $a972.900285 701 $aReid$b Basil A.$f1961-$01621167 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822316303321 996 $aArchaeology and geoinformatics$94103149 997 $aUNINA
