Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, the variety of sensors and platforms used in remote sensing archeology has increased significantly. This Special Issue will present a collection of scientific articles that provide a sample of state-of-the-art and forefront research in this field. Remote sensing archeology issues will be analyzed, both as measuring tools for the documentation of existing archaeological structures as well as tools of archaeology prospection which are based on the appearance of the marks on images. It focuses on worldwide design and applications of satellite systems and UARSS (unmanned aerial remote sensing system) in archeology: sensors and platforms, geometric and radiometric sensors, sensor fusion, controlling system, security systems, navigation and position/orientation, techniques and methodological procedures, calibration of imageries, image processing, georectification, fusion images, classification, indicators, big data management of different types and dates, photo-interpretation keys, types of marks, etc. are some of the topics that will be analyzed and presented in this Special Issue.
