What you will learn ?

Fieldwork & Digital Capture

Learning crop marks and lidar in archaeology Pyrenees Sanisera
  • Drone photogrammetry in archaeological sites: flight planning, overlap parameters, GCP placement, and zenithal/oblique capture.
  • GNSS point collection: high-precision positioning of architectural features and spatial survey coordinates.
  • Ground-truthing spatial anomalies: field verification of potential structures detected via LiDAR and satellite imagery.
  • Stratigraphic and structural analysis of medieval settlements, Romanesque temples, castles, and rock-cut necropolises (10th–14th centuries).
  • Archaeological site condition reporting: cataloging state of conservation, accessibility, and spatial extent.

Laboratory, GIS & AI Data Processing

Learning lidar hillshade in archaeology Pyrenees Sanisera
  • QGIS and ArcGIS spatial analysis: projection configuration, historical layer georeferencing, vector editing, and project data management.
  • LiDAR data handling: generating Digital Elevation Models (DEM), Hillshade visualizations, Slope gradient maps, and multi-directional relief visualizations.
  • 3D photogrammetric processing: point cloud densification, mesh generation, and texture mapping to export orthophotos and 3D elevation models.
  • Artificial intelligence applied to archaeology: prompt engineering with Claude AI to structure field notes, synthesize archival documentary sources, and cross-reference site databases.
  • Technical report production: compilation of geospatial deliverables, architectural plans, and analytical conclusions for survey and excavation project designs.
