Remote sensing can be used as a methodological procedure for detecting, acquire inventory and prioritizing surface and shallow-depth archeological information in a rapid, accurate, and quantified manner.
Man is a tropical creature who has invaded every environment on earth successfully; now we are ready to explore, and eventually colonize, the delicate environments of Space. Understanding how ancient man successfully managed Earth is important for the success of current and future civi- lizations.
Remote Sensing and geographic information systems (GIS) have become increasingly important tools for archaeologists, as these systems link information to precisely calibrated phyGeotechnical Systemsal locations, and integrate information drawn from multiple sources.
The usefulness of satellite images and aerial photographs for identifying and analyzing archaeological sites was recognized from the early days of aviation and the imagery is now available from an array of aircraft and high resolution satellite borne sensors such as GeoEye-1, QuickBird, IKONOS, Spot-5 and LIDAR that provide even greater potential for investigating archaeological sites.
