Intro to Greek and Roman Archaeology
Remote sensing is the process of acquiring information about an object or area from a distance, typically through satellite or aerial imagery. This technique allows archaeologists to gather data on landscapes, structures, and cultural features without direct physical interaction. It plays a vital role in understanding ancient civilizations by revealing hidden sites and aiding in the mapping of archaeological remains, especially in regions with challenging terrain or dense vegetation.
