AIA Lecture Series, Spying the Past: Satellite Imagery and Archaeology in Southern Mesopotamia
Start Date: 9/24/2012Start Time: 7:00 PM
End Date: 9/24/2012End Time: 7:00 PM
Event Description
Using Mesopotamia as a case study Dr. Hritz looks at the integration of spatial datasets from historical imagery, digital elevation models (DEMs), and past archaeological surveys to provide new insights into the nature and remains of past landscape transformations. Hritz explains, "Satellite imagery can help reveal the location of the tigris River prior to its settling into its modern course, shedding light on its potential role in the early Mesopotamian agricultural societies. Hritz's Presentation proposes a methodology for unweaving and mapping preserved pieces of ancient landscapes, addressing larger issues of human modification of the landscape.
