A new minor version 3.3.0 of Field Desktop has been released
The release introduces new composite input fields and reworks several spatial relations.
Additionally, in an effort to improve community participation and to streamline the application's localization, a Weblate instance has been setup. Any researcher interested in helping can create an account and start translating into one or more preferred languages at weblate.dainst.org.

Henchir Bourgou is an ancient settlement of about 20 ha in the north-eastern hinterland of the island of Djerba. The release serves as a supplement to the publication in Archäologischer Anzeiger 2021/2.
This was the first time that a publication in Archäologischer Anzeiger has been linked to iDAI.field web. This ability to publish research data quickly, extensively and in detail online, and supplementary to a journal or monography, is a great advantage in using iDAI.field.
Another considerable benefit of direct online publication in iDAI.world is the possibility of providing type catalogues. In the case of Bourgou, the local type catalogue could thus be made available publically available in a timely manner, which is especially helpful for researchers in the region. The evaluation and publication of the Bourgou project data within the framework of iDAI.world worked well and served as a basis for further publications in an interactive and online accessible research environment.

Despite significant finds from surface surveys and the stately remains of a Hellenistic Mausoleum, which indicate a significant role for Henchir Bourgou in pre-Roman times, the ancient site was not initially listed as an official historical site. This was finally achieved in 2017, when a considerable part of the ancient area was threatened by the construction of a shopping mall. In response to an urgent request for assistance from the Institut National du Patrimoine (INP/Tunisia), the Scientific Department of the DAI Head Office and the Ludwig-Maximilians-University of Munich carried out a magnetometer survey, covering around half of the ancient settlement area, revealing an enormous density of ancient buildings. Excavation carried out by the Tunisian archaeologists in the summer of 2018, and the processing of the finds by an international team the following year, showed a stratigraphy whose layers can be dated from the 8th century BCE to the 2nd century CE. +
++ As part of these research activities, iDAI.field2 was employed. In order to be compatible with earlier datasets and to ensure later data comparability, an existing data collection table (xlsx-File) based on a system by French colleagues established in Tunisia for ceramic processing was compared with the data structure in iDAI.field2 and could be mapped to the fields (detailed report see: Vom Feld in die Datenbank und zurück. iDAI.field als digitale Datenbank für die Verwaltung von alten und neuen Daten – ein Arbeitsbericht). The (especially linguistic) adaptation on the basis of the same fields and the same/similar value lists enables homogeneous data collection and allows long-term comparison of data from different projects. +
