Fasti Online has been expanded to include information on survey and conservation efforts from 3700 excavation sites in 14 countries since 2000. Over 1200 additional sites were added during the four years of the ARIADNE project. A new initiative called NAHAN aims to create a common platform for over 20 archives in Europe and North Africa, using the ARIADNE model. Fasti Online has grown due to increased awareness of the need to share archaeological information and has driven other new initiatives. It was also awarded the Archaeological Institute of America's first annual award for digital archaeology.
