We’re revisiting the past on day 15 of our #NewForestChristmasCountdown to look back at the more than 3,000 archaeological sites identified in the National Park by archaeologists and volunteers. LiDAR is just one of the tools used by teams to lead them to discoveries on the ground, including Bronze Age burial mounds, an Iron Age fort, and a medieval field system. The New Forest was the first national park in the country to have its landscape fully surveyed using the technology, which can penetrate tree cover and incorporates high-tech imagery using lasers beamed back from aircraft. You can explore the map yourself here: https://lnkd.in/eyJzb_F4 LiDAR image shows an Iron Age hill fort.

"Evidences of the Roman Road Cascantum Turiaso" This book demonstrates how completely different disciplines can combine to produce extraordinary results. It is an exhaustive study that analyzes a segment of the Roman road between Cascantum and Turiaso (Cascante Tarazona in Spain). Using modern technologies such as satellite images, LiDAR, and archaeological methods, the author identifies and describes this ancient infrastructure. Through the analysis of images and historical studies, a 3,400-meter route between Cascante and Tulebras (Navarra, Spain) has been precisely determined, highlighting Roman construction characteristics. https://lnkd.in/gqvMsaKF #Tarazona #Cascante #Turiaso #Cascantum #ViaRomana

Recently Nature Journal has published an article on the application of LIDAR technologies to identify the urbanisation of medival period. It is a breakthrough analysis that is showing how in medival period urbanisation was prioritised in the streach of Himalayan Slik Route that staring from China and extending upto the middle East. All we are aware of archaelogical evidences of urbanisation in plain land but with the adavancement of remote sensing based observation, highland civilisation and its consequential urbanisation become evident. The report realated to the article provides more detail about the importance of LIDAR technlogy in mapping the urbanisation. It is a step forward to know history more scientifically.

Mapping landslides on high resolution lidar - I find this an incredibly cathartic and enjoyable task. This intersection of art and science takes experience, interpretation, and a bit of arm waving. If you want a very clear and definitive answer in your work, I do not suggest you try mapping landslides 👨🎨 😂 . But hey, the feeling you get when you map one? e.g., "am I the first person in the world to know about this landslide?" I mean COME.ON. 🥰 Now imagine you have *clean* and *beautiful* lidar change detection data between two datasets? Noise is still present here and there, but by far, most of what you see is real change that occurred on the ground (...soothing sounds heard in the distance, your chest falls with a deep sigh of relief...). Not only can you find the landslide, but you can quickly tell if it has moved recently? 🤤 One step closer to unlocking the secrets of how this big rock called Earth evolves and responds. So cool. Here's a video I made Friday of how I am using some beautiful data that Cambio Earth processed for us to map landslides that moved between 2017-2023 as part of a study to learn more about the July 2022 landslide event in Eastern Kentucky. To say I am enjoying this process is an understatement. So enlightening. Can't wait to share these results further. Let me know if you like this video and we can make some more. #landslides #lidar #lidarchangedetection #dataisbeautiful #lidart #geomorphology

This short video post illustrates how Corey and others at BGC are finding and measuring landslide and other ground changes across county to multi-state regions with aerial lidar data. What Corey is doing in this video was not possible at this speed and precision just a few years ago and was merely a "what if" scenario a decade ago. Now, it's changing the practice. Corey brings a unique blend of passion in technology and geology to the earth sciences, and this is worth a view when you have a few minutes to spare.

Aerial LiDAR captured by Woolpert Asia-Pacific over the Kingdom of Tonga has informed new research into the urbanisation of Pacific Island communities. Captured in 2011, Woolpert’s aerial survey mapping and geospatial insights were key in providing new evidence on urbanisation in Mu’ Tonga, revealing a new timeline much earlier than previously believed – approximately 700 years earlier. The The Australian National University (ANU) research led by PhD scholar Phillip Parton, recognises low-density urbanisation as key to understanding enduring social and economic change in the region. These include profound societal changes from the rise of social institutions, agglomeration effects, and the continuous settlement growth. “We were able to combine high-tech mapping and archeological fieldwork to understand what was happening in Tongatapu,” Phillip said. “[The research] shows the contribution of the Pacific to urban science. We can see clues that Tongatapu’s influence spreads across the southwest Pacific Ocean between the 13th and 19th centuries.” Learn more: https://hubs.la/Q02D5FG50 Woolpert #mapping #lidar #Pacific #urbanisation #hydrography #research
