The history and use of aerial and space-based remote sensing and ground based terrestrial laser scanning in archaeology

摘要: An overview of the history aerial and satellite-based remote sensing in archaeology is given, from initial technological development to a chronicling incorporation each technology into discipline. A discussion some main questions involving utilization follows, with specific emphasis on issue scale relation satellite photography. New incarnations GIS are offered as solution this other issues. novel ground based terrestrial laser scanning presented well general description involved. Problems implementation also discussed, particular importance given operational limitations faced field cultural sites. The workflow examined step-by-step analysis site assessment, optimization data capture, post-processing, final media deliverable undertaken. relating individual steps highlighted discussed different solutions presented. assessment state art will be archaeological case studies undertaken by author.
