It will enable development-led archaeological organisations to increase the value proposition of archaeology, unlocking apotential multiplier effect wherein the archaeological record collectively achieves wider social impact. Smaller grassroots groups will coproduce network resources and use the data to respond to increasing demands for data-led evidence of success at broadening reach and inclusiveness, and to confidently grow their audiences through targeted activities.As a community of practice, groups delivering public archaeology within the planning process form a significant avenue for audiences to access live archaeological investigations and contribute hands-on insights into UK heritage. Yet they lack a consistent understanding of the audiences they reach and, crucially, of gaps in thisreach.Our network will bring diverse community and organisational representatives together to(1) establish digital standards and the first Archaeology Data Service Guide to Good Practice for Audience Data,(2) aggregate and share digital audience data in FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) andTRUST-worthy (Transparent, Responsible, User focused, Sustainable and Technologically sound) fashion,(3) test new ways of engaging people in archaeological practice(4) develop community skills in digital data collection and analysis
