Synopsis

This book comprises a groundbreaking series of experiments and case studies in the use of aerial remote sensing techniques in archaeology. Through the detailed documentation of numerous projects, the author presents a clear and specific methodology for implementing remote sensing from initial planning and data collection to final analysis and interpretation. The author frames this new methodology within a discussion of the history of remote sensing in archaeology, and argues that wider adoption of these techniques has the potential to revolutionize archaeological practice. The book concludes with a discussion of the ethical implications of using remote sensing in archaeology, ensuring that this revolutionary approach to the discipline is applied responsibly and ethically. The author's work has significant implications for archaeologists and cultural resource managers, but also more broadly for scholars in the social and natural sciences who share an interest in the application of technological solutions to complex problems.
