Abstract

One of the limitations of satellite techniques in archaeological investigations is the land cover. Heritage objects may be more or less visible depending on the land cover type. Low vegetation, such as grass or small shrubs, will usually allow us to determine the location of archaeological objects if the difference in height between the object and vegetation is not significant enough. Forest or high vegetation cover makes it more challenging to determine the location of potentially artificial structures. This project's study area covered 50×70 km of the lower reaches of the Vistula River, Poland. The authors searched for anthropogenic objects close to watercourses and analysed nine different (point, line and surface type) objects having a defensive, sepulchral or settlement function. Circular objects, ditches and earth embankments, burial mounds and strongholds of regular forms were found during this research. Based on nine different models processed with LiDAR-based DEMs, several characteristics and relationships of various types of objects were demonstrated. Moreover, optimal models for searching for archaeological objects in forest areas were defined.

现场和地面中世纪物品的案例研究-验证当前记录考古遗址的远程方法

卫星技术在考古调查中的局限性之一是土地覆盖。根据土地覆盖类型的不同，文物可能或多或少可见。如果考古对象和植被之间的高度差异不够显著，低植被（如草地或小灌木）通常可以让我们确定考古对象的位置。森林或高植被覆盖率使得确定潜在人工结构的位置更具挑战性。该项目的研究区域覆盖了波兰维斯瓦河下游50×70km的河段。作者搜索了靠近水道的人为物体，并分析了九种具有防御、坟墓或定居功能的不同（点、线和表面类型）物体。在这项研究中发现了圆形物体、沟渠和土堤、土墩和规则形式的据点。基于基于激光雷达的DEM处理的九个不同模型，展示了各种类型物体的几个特征和关系。此外，还定义了在森林地区寻找考古对象的最佳模型。
