Abstract:

Abstract. The use of high-resolution digital terrain model derived from airborne LiDAR system becomes more and more prevalent. Effective multi-scale structure characterization is of crucial importance for various domains such as geosciences, archaeology and Earth observation. This paper deals with structure detection in large datasets with little or no prior knowledge. In a recent work, we have demonstrated the relevance of hierarchical representations to enhance the description of digital elevation models (Guiotte et al., 2019). In this paper, we proceed further and use the pattern spectrum,

Abstract:

This article provides an overview of modern remote sensing techniques in archaeology and their practical applications. The widespread use of GIS technologies and remote sensing methods such as photogrammetry and laser scanning is a distinguishing characteristic of contemporary archaeology. Remote sensing data is employed not only for the analysis of 3D archaeological objects and territories but also in the digital terrain models (DTMs) analysis to search for and identify potential archaeological excavation sites. The introduction of remote sensing methods in archaeology has brought about a cha

Abstract:

Conflict archaeology is a young subdiscipline of Hungarian archaeological research. The Ministry of Defence Military History Institute and Museum has been conducting research on the battlefields of Mohács and Harsány mountain (AD 1526, 1687) since 2010. The methodology of the research is based on classical conflict archaeological methodology (landscape archaeology, non-destructive archaeological research, military terrain analysis). The area and the historical landscape of the first and the second battle of Mohács show similarities, at the same time the different amount of source material resu

Abstract. Currently, digital elevation models (DEM) created by photogrammetric method based on unmanned aerial survey data are becoming an increasingly popular product. They are used in various areas of human activity related to modelling and analysis of terrain, namely: topography, engineering and geodetic surveys, surveying, archaeology, geomorphology, etc. The accuracy of digital surface and terrain models obtained by the photogrammetric method depends on the accuracy of aerial triangulation and dense point cloud from a number of overlapping images. In turn, the accuracy of the aerial trian

Abstract: The authors reveal the functions of the Ming Great Wall's archery windows as well as the wisdom behind their construction. They developed a cross-regional, quantitative research method that identifies heritage values, beginning with data collection by drones, proceeding through data processing using artificial intelligence, and concluding with data analysis via landscape archaeology. The data collection method respects the morphology of the Great Wall and the rugged terrain around it. The authors improved an existing neural network by introducing automatic labeling and processing of

Abstract:

Preliminary analysis of an archaeological site requires the acquisition of information by several diverse diagnostic techniques. Remote sensing plays an important role especially in spatially extended and not easily accessible sites for the purposes of preventive and rescue archaeology, landscape archaeology, and intervention planning. In this paper, we present a case study of a detailed topographic survey based on a light detection and ranging (LiDAR) sensor carried by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV; also known as drone).

Anders Nummedal - one hour ahead of his time. Anders Nummedal is considered as an archaeological pioneer. In the 1910s, he developed techniques for surveying landscapes, involving systematic and physical examination of the terrain for Stone Age sites. This was in a sharp contrast to the ordinary procedure of doing Stone Age Archaeology at this time. Nummedal was in many ways different from the average pre-war archaeologist. His social habitus as well as methods for doing archaeology were, however, reproduced by the next generation of archaeologists, being part of the large social transformatio

Abstract:

Abstract Many archaeological sites have not been revealed because most of them are covered by trees in dense tropical forest areas. One technology that can overcome is LiDAR. LiDAR technology has been used by several countries to find archaeological sites in locations where direct surveys are not possible, such as at Maya civilization in America and Ankor Watt site in Cambodia. Case study of this research is the Sriwijaya Muaro Jambi site using the results of the LiDAR data survey and aerial photography. LiDAR Point Cloud data is processed into DTM (Digital Terrain Model) and DSM (Digital Surf

Through a magnetometer survey, a shovel test survey, and a reanalysis of a 1939 legacy collection from the 3rd Terrace, new interpretations about this peripheral area of the site will help to expand our ideas about Mississippian daily life in a wider geographic area and may help to better understand a transitional

Abstract:

Abstract Airborne LiDAR, or airborne Light Detection and Ranging, is a remote sensing technique that measures, among other things, the terrain elevation. In the past two decades, it has become an indispensable component of landscape archaeology, especially for archaeological prospection. However, it is still infrequently used in mountain archaeology. This is especially true in the high mountains, where technical challenges make its use difficult. We can anticipate more successful applications in the future due to the ever-improving quality of data. At present, the greatest untapped potential o

Abstract:

The construction of monumental temples and sanctuaries during the sixth century BC changed the appearance of cult sites and settlements in Archaic Tyrrhenian Italy. The relationship between monumental cult buildings and their settings, however, is not well understood. As will be discussed below, scholars have argued that the placement and orientation of Archaic temples was influenced by the terrain, pre-existing cult sites, ritual geography, and the requirements of those within settlements. It has also been unclear whether religious monumentalization followed recognizable topographical pattern

Abstract:

This paper has a threefold aim: to clarify some misunderstandings concerning so-called ‘actor–network theory’ (ANT), to show how ANT can be put to use in archaeology, and to articulate differences from, overlaps, and possible combinations with ‘conventional’ network analysis. The key argument is that whereas networks imply direct and untransformed flows between bounded entities, ANT renders visible the heterogeneous ‘work-nets’ needed to support and stabilize these networks and the entities they connect. Moreover, networks are only one constellation or social topology that can emerge from such
