Aerial Laser Scanning in Archaeology

Original language description

Technology of aerial laser scanning is often well used for a DTM generation. The DTM (digital surface model) displayed in appropriate form, e.g. shaded surface, can be used as a data source for searching for archaeological sites. Aerial laser scanning data acquisition is unfortunately too expensive for non-commercial projects. It can be a solution to use the ALS data acquired by public service. In general, this data has lower density than the expensive custom-made data, but in a limited size can be borrowed for some research purpose. We tested the data from The Czech Office for Surveying, Mapping and Cadastre. The aim was to find if the density of about 1 point/m2 is sufficient for archaeological research. We used the DTM in the form of shaded surfaceand inspected the data around few well known archaeological sites of different periods.
