These techniques have fundamentally changed the nature and scope of questions that can be addressed regarding the archaeological record. Despite this stimulating potential, many practising archaeologists were not trained in these methods and so are not fully aware of their capabilities or the most appropriate ways to apply them. This volume collates state of the art research in the fields of geophysics, geochemistry, aerial imaging, dating, digital archaeology, GIS and marine archaeology to present a comprehensive overview of the specialised techniques which can contribute to landscape scale archaeological investigations. It is hoped that it will serve as a "best practice" guide for their use and encourage their widespread adoption by the archaeological community.GeoinformaticsLandscape archaeologyGeoinformaticsLandscape archaeology930.1Sarris Apostolos1458358BOOK9910854296503321Best Practices of Geoinformatic Technologies for the Mapping of Archaeolandscapes4176090UNINA
