Abstract
Today, there is an increasing use of airborne sensors in archaeology, especially to investigate the surface of vast territories quickly and accurately. Airborne laser scanning technologies from small remotely piloted aircraft are rapidly developing towards increasingly high-performance solutions for the investigation of archaeological evidence hidden by vegetation or substantial soil deposits. The proposed contribution aims to show the contribution of “UAVIMALS” (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Integrated with Micro Airborne Laser Scanner), a patent aerial remote sensing system of “soil marks” designed for surface archaeological investigations and the results obtained in the archaeological context of Leopoli – Cencelle (Tarquinia, Lazio).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
