ANT-2221 Lecture Notes - Lecture 9: Remote Sensing, Metal Detector, Magnetometer
Document Summary
Geophysical methods: ground-penetrating radar, magnetometer, electrical resistivity, metal detecting. **we don"t use any of the above methods to find sites. Aerial reconnaissance or satellite imaging: (remote sensing, can be used to find sites. Lidar: (light detection and ranging, can be used to find sites. Geophysical surveys: detecting the presence of an archaeological feature without digging, some methods allow initial discovery of a site, most are used to find specific features or . Ground-penetrating radar: (gpr, finding specific things once site is found, looking for graves. Metal detecting: burnt structures, fence lines, nails, etc.
