Airborne Remote Sensing of Aggregate Landscapes
ALSF Project Number 5261
K. Challis & A.J. Howard 2008
This project investigated the potential of multispectral and hyperspectral methods of airborne remote sensing (RS) for the prospection of cultural, environmental and geoarchaeological remains in river valley floors. The project undertook systematic examination of Daedalus 1268 Airborne Thematic Mapper (ATM) and Compact Airborne Spectrographic Imager (CASI) multispectral data. AISA Eagle hyperspectral data for a small area were also examined. Work focused on thearchaeologically rich, well documented aggregate landscapes of the middle Trent Valley, Nottinghamshire.
