Abstract:

The article is devoted to the problem of using remote sensing data for studying and mapping archaeological sites in interdisciplinary research. The purpose of the experiments is to develop a methodology for searching and mapping archeological monuments based on the interpretation of aerospace images. The problem to be solved is formalized search and the procedure of selecting objects. The complex of tasks for ridentifying objects from images cannot be realated only to the field of decryption, it also deals with the field of information processing signals (computer vision), and this is where the great potential for continuing experiments is seen. In the process of implementing the tasks, the Detection Artefacts software package was developed, which is based on noise reduction, filtering, morphological analysis, binarization, etc. Its notable feature is the freedom of choice settings, the ability of setting parameters: a sliding window, image compression ratios, and the software package is intended for scientific research.

Keywords:

archaeological sites, indication interpretation, morphometric analysis, remote sensing, satellite imagery, software implementation of computer interpretation algorithms, spatial-frequency fil tering
