It shall cover the entire spectrum of methodology and technology applied to the detection, localization and investigation of buried cultural heritage (aerial photography, airborne laser scanning, hyperspectral imaging, near-surface geophysics, data processing, visualization and archaeological interpretation).

Five sessions will be held:

• Case studies and archaeological feedback
• Methods and innovations
• Environmental studies and landscape evolution
• Processing and visualisation of data
• Special session: Spatial analysis and aerial remote sensing

The special session will be devoted to experimental, innovative or original approaches of spatial analysis and modeling in archeology or geo-archeology, in the diversity of scales, data or methods used. The objective is the dissemination of these approaches, their potential reuse or their adaptation to different topics or contexts.
