Axel G. Posluschny: Networking Remote Sensing in Archaeology: Fostering Methods and Knowledge in Europe and Beyond - From International Associations Scattering Towards Globalization
Presentation at the Pacific Neighborhood Congress, Space2Place session, Berkeley/CA, 9/12/2012
This document discusses the analysis of Celtic "Princely Sites" using Geographic Information Systems (GIS). It begins by defining "Princely Sites" and providing examples, like the Heuneburg and Glauberg sites. The data and methodology used in the GIS analyses are described. The document then discusses rethinking the concept of "Princely Sites" through GIS analyses, looking at aspects like viewsheds, routes, and relationships between sites and their hinterlands. It explores how GIS can provide new insights into questions around centralization of power and the roles of these sites. The summary concludes by mentioning the project aims to better understand settlement patterns and social organization through these spatial analyses.

You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet - Geophysical Surveying Methods as a Tool for Cult...ArchaeoLandscapes Europe
This document discusses the use of geophysical surveying methods for cultural heritage protection. It begins by outlining some of the invisible features that are challenges for cultural heritage management. Traditional field walking is limited while geophysical surveying methods like magnetometry, earth resistance, and ground-penetrating radar can cover larger areas non-destructively and make the invisible visible. These and other modern methods such as satellite images, LiDAR, and aerial photographs are discussed. In conclusion, the document emphasizes that combining multiple surveying techniques provides the most complete picture of archaeological features and is important for cultural heritage protection and land use planning.

Sustainable virtual reconstruction for the Keys2Rome exhibitionsDaniel Pletinckx
Presentation at the Digital Museum Expo in Amsterdam, about virtual reconstruction of a wide range of sites in the Roman Empire, applied in the Keys2Rome exhibitions in Amsterdam, Rome, Sarajevo and Alexandria. Virtual 3D reconstruction processes are scientific research processes that synthesise the knowledge of different domains to come to the most probable reconstruction of a man-made structure or landscape. This means that the process needs to be formalised and documented, in different ways, for different audiences (which we do through for example blogs and 3DPDF). But it means also that virtual reconstructions needs to be re-usable, hence they should be seen by museums and heritage institutions as investments, not as costs.
3D data acquisition and archaeological documentation, Alberto Sanchez, France...3D ICONS Project
3D data acquisition and archaeological documentation, presentation given by Alberto Sanchez, Francesco Gomez, Ana Martinez and Arturo Ruiz at the 3D ICONS workshop at the XVIII Borso Mediterranea del Turismo Archeologico conference in Paestrum.
The presentation describes the contribution of the University of Jaen Research Institute for Iberian Archaeology to the 3D ICONS project and the methodology used.
During the Renaissance period, European explorers and navigators embarked on voyages of travel and exploration for reasons of gold, glory, and spreading Christianity. Technological advances like the compass and new ship designs like the caravel enabled these explorers to venture farther than ever before. Some of the most notable explorers of this era included Leif Ericsson, Marco Polo, Prince Henry the Navigator, Bartholomew Diaz, Christopher Columbus, Amerigo Vespucci, John and Sebastian Cabot, Vasco da Gama, Ferdinand Magellan, Hernando Cortes, and Francisco Pizarro. Their journeys expanded geographic and navigational knowledge and led to the Age of Discovery.
This document discusses various methods that archaeologists use to locate and excavate archaeological sites. Surface features visible from the air like crop marks, soil marks, and satellite imagery can help identify potential sites. Geophysical techniques like ground penetrating radar, resistivity surveys, and magnetic surveying are used to detect underground features without excavation. Once a site is located, archaeologists systematically excavate using methods like the grid system or open area technique to record the vertical and horizontal relationships between archaeological finds and features. Underwater archaeology employs some similar techniques as well as diving methods.
The document is an archaeological portfolio for Anna Sokołowska, an archaeologist and illustrator. It includes documentation from excavations she participated in countries such as Poland, Ukraine, Germany and the United Kingdom. It also contains examples of her aerial photographs, archaeological plans, artifacts illustrations, and forensic archaeological photographs and illustrations from projects examining undocumented burial sites of victims of communist regimes between 1944-1956. The portfolio demonstrates Sokołowska's skills in areas such as aerial archaeology, photo interpretation, digital mapping, forensic illustration, and archaeological documentation and illustration.
The CinBA project studies creativity and craft production in Bronze Age Europe through collaboration between academic and non-academic partners. The project has partners from several European countries who bring expertise in archaeology, heritage, and crafts. It examines motifs, skills, and trends in pottery, textiles, metalworking, and how prehistoric crafts inspire contemporary artists. Knowledge transfer activities include publications, exhibitions, workshops, and engagement with academics, heritage institutions, craftspeople, and the public. Project meetings, research team meetings, and workshops facilitate collaboration and management. The research has had wider impacts than initially predicted.
The Wonderful Century: Astronomy For Developmentunawe
Presentation by Prof. George Miley during the Symposium: Astronomy, Radio Sources and Society in Leiden, NL June 2013
www.strw.leidenuniv.nl/symposium/
This document discusses the use of remote sensing techniques in archaeology. It begins with an introduction to archaeology and how remote sensing provides a non-destructive method to map large areas. The document then reviews literature on previous studies applying remote sensing. Two case studies are described in detail: one uses satellite imagery to detect enclosure walls at archaeological sites in India, and another uses airborne sensors to identify buried structures in Scotland. Overall, the document demonstrates how remote sensing can be used to detect archaeological features and sites.
The document describes ArchaeoLandscapes Europe, a network for archaeological remote sensing and surveying. The network aims to improve the use of remote sensing techniques in archaeology by sharing expertise between its 61 partner institutions across Europe. It organizes technical workshops, training schools, and conferences to advance the skills and knowledge of remote sensing. The network is supported by a 5-year, €5 million EU grant to facilitate collaboration and exchange of ideas between archaeologists on remote sensing methods.

The document provides an overview of mine heritage conservation and tourism development at the Fournel Silver Mines site in France from 1991-2005. Key points include:
1) Extensive archaeological excavations and research uncovered over 10km of underground mining networks and remnants of surface buildings, improving historical understanding of the site.
2) The research and excavations informed the development of educational and tourism programming at the site, including reconstructed workshops and ore processing machines.
3) Partnerships were formed with local associations and national/European networks to support further archaeological work, heritage expertise, and tourism development at other mining sites in France and abroad.
Engaging the Community with Digital Archaeology at the Old Church of St. Nich...RCAHMW
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by the Churches Conservation Trust to undertake a community project at the Old Church of St. Nicholas, Uphill during Heritage Open Days. Whilst the CCT were interested in the results of the archaeological work, the primary aim of the project was to use the work to enthuse the community about this seldom open heritage asset. It was hoped that as a result volunteers would be found to help keep the church regularly open to visitors.
The project made use of a combination of laser scanning, metric survey, excavation, RTI and geophysics to investigate the church and graveyard. This integrated approach to site investigation helped draw large numbers of visitors to the site and allowed them to learn about the practice of modern archaeology.
With engaging the community a priority people were encouraged to help conduct the archaeological work where possible. Volunteers were trained in archaeological survey and excavation techniques and given explanations of how the equipment they were using worked.
The project was carried out in such a way that provisional results could be viewed on site to maximise engagement. Raw scans were shown on the instrument as the laser scanning progressed, the graveyard was surveyed straight to CAD on a tablet PC, and Reflectance Transformation Imaging was processed on site. This allowed volunteers to see the product of their work straight away. A selection of the project work was exhibited on the final open day including the processed laser scan survey of the exterior of the church.
This project brought new knowledge about the Old Church of St. Nicholas to the community and allowed individuals from that community to share their knowledge with others. The multi-disciplinary approach to this project drew large numbers of people to the church and many were excited by the potential of the digital practices of modern archaeology, however traditional approaches still hold a great appeal.
This paper will discuss the successes and challenges of the project, the benefits that the use of technology brought to it, and some of the findings of the work carried out.

Telescopes and space-based observation tools allow humans to observe and study objects in space. Telescopes use lenses and mirrors to collect electromagnetic radiation and produce magnified images. The largest optical telescopes are in Hawaii, with an even larger one currently under construction. Space-based tools like satellites, probes, and rovers have been launched to observe space without atmospheric interference and visit other celestial bodies. The Voyager probes left our solar system, carrying messages about humanity. The International Space Station is an orbiting laboratory built from parts delivered by shuttles and rockets.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

When most people hear about archaeology, they think of adventures, exotic countries, nice landscapes, treasures and bones. Indiana Jones and Lara Craft are great movies, making use of a wonderful clichès - but not more than that. To cite Indiana Jones „Archaeology is the search for facts, not truth “ - and that is done by precise methods, by excavations and scientific measurements. While treasure hunting was only part of archaeology in former times or part of illegal looting nowadays, excavations and the resulting finds and structures are still an important source of archaeological knowledge. But the tool box of archaeologists has been expanded since a couple of years now.
Things have changed since the first pictures of archaeological features have been taken from an airplane in the 1910s or 1920s. New techniques have been developed and adopted for archaeology, so it ‘ s not Indiana Jones representing modern archaeology but people working with sophisticated archaeological eqipment - which also sometimes may look a bit mysterious.
And it is not witchcraft we are doing. Technical methods applied to archaeology offer a new and in many cases much broader insight into single archaeological sites or even landscapes. But of course, I confess, some of the results as you can see here, do also look rather mysterious, even more than the fancy instruments we sometimes are using. It is our aim to demystify some of these techniques and to share with you some of the results that we could gain from modern surveying technology. Archaeology can be exciting, even when the pictures that you can see here appear a bit boring. But they reveal some interesting information for the knowing as we will show you today.
Archaeologists are very good in adopting methods and technologies from other disciplines. Many of these methods have been borrowed even from military context. I guess it ‘ s correct to use the picture of swords into ploughshares for that kind of use and the use of magnetometric survey is a good example for that. The differences in the earth ‘ magnetic field that is caused by objects - the so-called magnetic anomaly - is used to detect for examples submarines from the air.
But also archaeological objects and features that are buried in the ground can create magnetic anomalies which can be measured with a geomagnetic device which can be drawn by a car or carried by man.
Everything that humans do with the soil leaves its marks in the soil. Stones of an ancient wall are still in the ground, changing its texture. Ditches get refilled by ploughing after a while - again filled with soil of a different texture. In archaeology - like in submarine detection - features that differ from their magnetic values from their surrounding can be detected. A submarine has a differrent magentic value than the surrounding sea, and a stone, especially when burned, or the different soil in a former ditch have different magnetic values than their surrounding soils. These differences can be measured and can be represented in a plan that shows the magnetic values of a measured area.
You can see here an example for such a resulting plan of certain features that are hidden in the soil. This plan for example shows the result of a large scale geomagnetic survey in Slowakia with traces of a ditch fortified Bronze Age settlement, a Neolithic eathwork and houses and a Roman military camp. Archaeologists use these methods to detect unknown sunken features, but also to investigate an area before an excavation takes place to know where which kind of features can be expected when digging op the ground. You can compare it with a doctor who is making an x-ray scan before doing a keyhole surgery - not cutting the whole body open to find out what is wrong and where.
Looking from above and having a larger overview was (and still is) one of the first and main reasons why planes have been used in warfare. It was not so much the attacking possibilities of aircrafts that were important for first world war pilots but the ability to see the enemie ‘ s ongoing activities on a larger scale and in a wider context. This overview, this aspect of contextualisation is of course also important for archaeology.
So not only soldiers wanted to know what can be seen from above. Archaeologists soon discovered that known archaeological sites can be documented and even newly detected from the air. As already mentioned, buried structures leave marks in the soil which can be traced for a very long time, even for several thousands of years. Whereas a ditch usually provides a much more humid soil, the soil above a buried wall can be much dryer. Both result in different appearance of the soil itself or in a differing growth of plants.
These features can be seen from above, and moreover they also can be seen in a context with other features, forming a picture which the archaeologists can interpret. The example shows various sunken features like pits and ditches that form a prehistoric settlement in the Czech Republic.
You can see a number of storage and garbage pits that preserved more humid soil conditions, resulting in a better growth of teh crops.
A ditch has been surrounding a prehistoric house
And when you look carefully, you can even detect the postholes from houses that were build in a timber-frame construction, very regulary distributed in a 3 by 4 pattern on the left hand side.
And yet another feature is a larger ditch structure (KLICK) which might not have belonged to the same phase of the settlement as it seems to be overlapping (or is overlapped by) some of the pits that we can see.
Satellites use the same principle as observers from airplanes and they have been in use for such purposes especially during the cold war in the late 20th century.
But of course archaeologists found out, that on these images not only tanks and missile bases could be seen, but also archaeological sites or landscapes and their use. The satellite image on the left hand side shows the development of an archaeological site in Sudan - images from different periods show the landscape and its change. While it was rather costly to buy these pictures in the past, tools like GoogelEarth allow the archaeologists as well as any interested laymen to depict archaeological features from an armchair - like the gigantic Bronze Age earthwork in Romania on the right hand side.
The site has a number of large ditch systems. Some of them seem to be more or less straight lines, but most are circular ditches with gaps that might indicate entrances.
From fieldwalking and smal excavation trenches we now know that this site dates to the Bronze Age, which makes it 3500 years old, or maybe even older.
To give you an idea of the size of this site: the length of the red line you can see here is more than 2800 meters long!
The military has always tried to gain information about the topography of battlefields, lines of communication and the landscape in general. Airplanes and satellites have helped to get this information, either by photographs or by precise measurements
With the further developement of radar measurements (again a technique that was invented for military purposes) it became possible to use satellites to measure a digital elevation model - a height model of the earth ‘ s surface - with a ground resolution of 25 m or even less. Measurements from an airplane or a helicopter can provide an even more detailled picture of the topography with a resolution of 20 cm or below. Small differences in height which can be caused by very shallow ditches and ramparts of a Celtic hillfort - like the one from Glauburg in Germany you can see here here on the right - are not visible from the ground but they become easily recognisable on a shaded relief image from a LiDAR scan
LiDAR - short for „Light Detection and Ranging “ is measured from the air with radar like laser scans. With the help of a GPS device the coordinates of each measured point on the ground can be calculated with very high precision. Jörg Bofinger will tell you a bit more about it later. One of the big advantages is the possibility to not only measure the surface of the ground in open areas but also in terrain that is covered by bushes or trees. Special filtering algorithms allow to digitally remove these features so that prehistoric grave mounds can be discovered by their height differences even in the woods as you can see on the grayscale picture.
The picture here shows the LiDAR scan of a Celtic hillfort in the Czech Republic, densly covered with trees and bushes which you can see here as the darker areas.
After a bit of advanced filtering the vegetation has been removed and the image impressively shows the ditch and rampart system of the hillfort as well as a number of other features.
Those are just a view of the surveying techniques that archaeologists nowadays use. But funny enough, even when they all have an enormous potential to discover, document and monitor archaeological sites and landscapes, their use is not equally distributed all over Europe! Hence the EU supports the „ArchaeoLandscapes Europe “ project which aims to overcome these differences and which promotes the use and the benefits of these techniques on a European level.
My colleagues will now show a number of examples for some of the methods that I have shown you. Thank you very much for your attention!
