The paper proposes examples of archaeological objects fixing using Geoinformation system (GIS) as an effective computer-supported system used for a digital visualization and analysis of geographic features and events happening on them. The main preference of using these methods is disclosed due to elaborations of specialists worked in Architectural-archaeological expedition of Archaeology Institute of NASU for several years. There is an experience gained in field and urban space.
According to this thesis main preferences that is noticed by authors are: 1) an accuracy of fixing in a difficult conditions; 2) multipurpose and flexibility of coordinate system; 3) a unique format of different file types; 4) an opportunity of object reconstruction based on earlier drawing; 5) creation a topography ground (basic plan) for future excavations; 6) combining in one GIS model different types of information that is appropriate to an archaeological object; 7) join the attribute tables of database related to archaeological objects fixed during the excavation in GIS formats.
An effective algorithm of object fixing is proposed by using the most basic methods of GIS.
