Remote Sensing Methods

  • Chapter
Science and Technology in Historic Preservation

Part of the book series: Advances in Archaeological and Museum Science ((AAMS,volume 4))

Abstract

Remotely sensed data allows archaeologists and historic preservationists the ability to detect phenomena previously unobservable to them by nondestructive methods. Archaeologists have successfully used aerial photography since the turn of the century and it continues to be an important research tool today. Multispectral scanners and computer-implemented analysis techniques extend the range of human vision and provide the investigator with innovative research designs at scales previously unimaginable. Pioneering efforts in the use of remote sensing technology have demonstrated its potential, but it is the recent technological developments in remote sensing instrumentation and computer capability that provide for unlimited, cost-effective applications in the future. The combination of remote sensing, Global Positioning System (GPS) technology, and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is radically altering survey, inventory, and modeling approaches.
