We are pleased to announce that abstract submission is now open for the 30th CONFERENCE of the AERIAL ARCHAEOLOGY RESEARCH GROUP (AARG)!
This annual conference will take place at the location of the RCE (Dutch Cultural Heritage agency 'Rijksdienst voor het Cultureel Erfgoed'), Smallepad 5, 3811 MG AMERSFOORT in The Netherlands.
Dates: 26-28 September 2013.
The conference will bring together scientists, students, decision makers, end users, and commercial companies that are interested in archaeological remote sensing and will cover all themes related to archaeological remote sensing so that the debate on the use and applicability of remote sensing technologies for archaeology and cultural heritage management applications can continue, not only for research but also for the promotion of conservation and public understanding.
How can our various techniques be deployed in combination with one another, and with what practical outcomes?
- How can we build bridges across regional or national divides?
- What can we learn from combining or comparing our techniques?
- How can we make our results useful to those involved in practical conservation and future planning?
- How do our national or regional realities assist or impede the use of remote sensing techniques in research, conservation and the promotion of public understanding?
You are invited to submit an abstract of maximum 150 words for a proposed presentation/poster on any of the following themes:
- Archaeological remote sensing in the low countries
- Innovative trends
- RS for cultural heritage management
- Human-environment interactions in fluvial systems using RS approaches
- Close range and 3D photogrammetry
