**About the Editors**

**Geert Verhoeven** graduated in Archaeology in 2002 and completed his PhD in 2009 at Ghent University (UGent, Belgium). Afterwards, he worked for three years as a part-time professor at the UGent to teach archaeological prospection and archaeological IT. In June 2010, Geert moved to Vienna (Austria) to accommodate his job as a senior researcher in the LBI ArchPro, where he has been researching airborne photography and imaging spectroscopy, archaeological image fusion, scientific photography, and image-based modelling. These techniques are explored to improve existing data acquisition and information extraction procedures within archaeology and cultural heritage at large. Geert's work is published in various international peer-reviewed papers and book chapters (all available online at https://lbi.academia.edu/GeertVerhoeven). He is also a CIPA expert member and member of AARG, ISAP, and SPIE.

**Dave Cowley** graduated in Archaeology at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne (UK) in 1987 and has been an archaeologist in Scotland since 1989. He has worked as a field surveyor (1989–2005), managed an annual programme of aerial reconnaissance (2005–2019) and now leads on archaeological survey for Historic Environment Scotland, the lead publicly funded body for the historic environment in Scotland. His research is focused on survey practice, especially in airborne contexts, on the archaeology of the landscape and on Iron Age settlement. He is undertaking a part-time PhD at Ghent University (UGent, Belgium) on long-term demographic patterns in south-east Scotland. He has published extensively in journals and book chapters, and edited volumes on remote sensing for archaeology and on Iron Age settlement in Europe (https://historicenvironment.academia.edu/DAVECOWLEY). He is a member of AARG and ISAP.

**Arianna Traviglia** is the Coordinator of the Centre for Cultural Heritage Technology (CCHT), part of the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT). Her work is focussed on the intersection of technology and humanities and most of her research focuses on mediating the inclusion of digital practices within the study and management of cultural heritage. Her expertise lies mainly in (close and far range) multi and hyperspectral image processing for the analysis of the cultural landscape and material culture. Dr Traviglia is part of the Executive Steering Committee of the International Computer Application and Quantitative Methods in Archaeology (CAA) association and has chaired the 41st Computer Applications in Archaeology Conference (CAA2013 Perth). She is the Project Officer of ArcLand International initiative and a member of AARG. She is currently a Principal Investigator or Co-Investigator of several projects funded by the European Commission and centred around the use of digital technologies for cultural heritage analysis and protection (NETCHER, REPAIR), and director of a project co-funded by the European Space Agency (ESA) focused on the use of satellite imagery and AI for detecting buried archaeological sites.
