Drones in Archaeology

We use drones in our archaeological work.

We use drones to photograph the excavation site. Survey points are marked using GPS. Based on this, we can create a georeferenced orthophoto—an image with coordinates. The orthophoto is digitized in a GIS program, where we map all the features we have outlined with a shovel.
