Using Black Earth and Remote Sensing - Methods and Guidelines for Analysis of Indicator Species Distribution Using Remote Sensing - Presentation (Legacy 10-416)

Author(s): Sarah Johnson; Marc Abrams; Laurie Rush

Year: 2012

Summary

This presentation continues the topic in the "Recommendations for Applying Results to DoD Modeling Initiatives" above. Remote sensing is defined, methods are presented, and interpretation and analysis are discussed. The theses of the presentation are that vegetation types containing high density of archaeological sites should show the highest potential for discovery of previously unknown cultural sites, and remote sensing, especially high-resolution aerial imagery, is useful in efficiently identifying potentially human-modified features on the ground.
