Abstract

This study addresses the role of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in highlighting and educating about archaeological sites, using the province of Sétif as a model. We will explore the functionalities and significance of GIS and employ it to map various archaeological sites within Setif. Furthermore, we will design an archaeological tourist route for the province, detailing the different steps and phases involved. For this purpose, we will use Google Earth Pro to pinpoint the locations, which will then be imported into ArcGIS to generate a map of the sites and the archaeological tourist route of Setif.
