Abstract: Sweden has two valuable resources that can be used in landscape analyses. The first of these is the Board of Antiquities Ancient Remains GIS Database (FMIS) which catalogues around 1.7 million remains in 600 000 locations across Sweden. The second is the vast collection of historical maps, representing a 400 year period and covering most of Sweden's populated areas. This lecture will present these two sources and show examples of GIS analysis performed with data from them.
