dc.description.abstract |
Archaeological sites, trails, and roads are traced using satellite remote-sensing,
but landscape archaeology often requires detailed survey of much smaller features.
At the Hatnub travertine quarries in the Egyptian desert, an ‘off-site’ survey
of small diffuse archaeological features was undertaken using high-resolution,
pan-sharpened satellite imagery with contrast stretching in obscured areas.
Comparison with recent field survey data demonstrated that this remote-survey
process was fast, reliable, and generally accurate, with a 93% success rate identifying
known features, and false positives estimated at 13%. The resulting digital
plans provide an accurate initial record of an imperilled landscape at a level of
detail that has not previously been attempted using remotely sensed data. This
ensures that future ground-truthing and investigatory fieldwork is targeted at
the most important remains and can be combined with mobile recording techniques
that modify the remote sensing, survey data during ‘on-site’ fieldwork. |
