| Zusammenfassung |
| The paper concerns the very significant contribution of satellite
ortho-images to archaeological research. The unavailability of cartography,
updated or in adequate scale, is a recurring problem for archaeological
research operating in urban and territorial contexts, and in the last years
interesting experiences have been carried out with the use of satellite
ortho-images; they can provide constant support to field work, both
excavations and surveys, and to the management of data in archaeological
GIS. As an example of this, the paper shows the results achieved by three
research projects carried out by CNR-IBAM in the Near and Middle East, the
Hierapolis of Phrygia Survey Project, the Tell Tuqan Survey Project
and the Iraq Virtual Museum Project in which base-maps and cartographies satellite
ortho-images have been widely used. In these projects, the use of very high
resolution satellite images was necessary because large scale and updated
cartographies and aerial photos are not available. In the examples shown,
satellite ortho-images have different uses, often linked to the possibility
or not of an accurate ortho-rectification, with the possibility of the
collection of Ground Control Points and with the availability of high
resolution DEMs. These images were used to create space-maps for the field
work, as well as to realize and update archaeological maps and cartographies
finalized to archaeological research. In the cases study presented,
WorldView-1, QuickBird-2 and Ikonos-2 images, also stereo-pairs, were used. |
