North arrows, ID arrows and colorimeters for archaeological photography

Good excavation photography needs more than a clear image. Orientation, scale, color reference and visual pointing tools help transform a photograph into a usable scientific record. This collection brings together north arrows, ID arrows, Strati’s Colorimeter Disks and related field documentation accessories for professional archaeological photography.

These tools are designed to complement archaeological photo scales and letter boards, giving each image the context needed for interpretation, publication, archiving and post-excavation analysis.

North arrows for orientation

North arrows indicate orientation directly in the photograph. They are especially useful for excavation contexts, structures, trenches, surfaces and features where the direction of the image matters. Strati Concept north arrows are double-sided, available in several sizes and colorways, and made in France for demanding field documentation workflows.

ID arrows for pointing out details

ID arrows help draw attention to a specific element in the image: a small find, a feature edge, a mark, a sample point or an area that may not be obvious at first glance. They are practical when a photograph needs to communicate not only scale and orientation, but also the exact point of interest.

Colorimeters for consistent color reference

Strati’s Colorimeter Disks provide a clear color reference for field and laboratory photography. They help support consistent post-processing, comparison between images and more reliable visual documentation of soils, finds, surfaces and conservation details.

Build a complete documentation setup

Use these tools with archaeological photo scales for measurable images, letter boards for visible context labels, and photo scale kits when your team needs a complete, organized field set. Together, they support clean, repeatable and publication-ready archaeological documentation.
