Abstract:
This research project aims to examine the use of remote sensing technologies in archaeological surveys and site identification. Remote sensing techniques, such as aerial photography, satellite imagery, LiDAR, and ground-penetrating radar, have revolutionized the field of archaeology by providing non-invasive methods for detecting and mapping archaeological sites. This study will explore the effectiveness and limitations of remote sensing technologies in different archaeological contexts, and their contribution to our understanding of past human activities and landscapes. By analyzing case studies and evaluating the data obtained through remote sensing, this research project seeks to shed light on the potential of these technologies in enhancing archaeological research and site preservation.
