    Satellite Images and GIS for Archaeology

    Satellite imagery can be used as a methodological procedure for detecting, acquire inventory and prioritizing surface and shallow-depth archeological information in a rapid, accurate, and quantified manner.

    Satellite images and GIS have become increasingly important tools for archaeologists, as these systems link information to precisely calibrated physical locations, and integrate information drawn from multiple sources. The usefulness of satellite imagery for identifying and analyzing archaeological sites was recognized from the early days of aviation and the imagery is now available from an array high resolution satellite sensors that provide even greater potential for investigating archaeological sites.

    Satellite Imaging Corporation (SIC) supplies satellite image data for visualization of terrain conditions in three dimensions (3D) or Digital Elevation Models (DEMs), which are generated from stereo satellite imagery. A digital elevation model can be used to closely examine various terrain attributes, their influence on the movement of soil and nutrients, as well as the resulting effect on forest, plant, and wildlife productivity and distribution.

    SIC provides specialized image processing technique by color balancing and utilizing the correct band combinations for Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) mapping technique, our experienced imaging and GIS mapping team will isolate the terrain features and geological information needed for the correct analysis of your research project.

    Satellite Imaging Corporation is an official Value Added Reseller (VAR) of imaging and geospatial data products for:
    A Twenty First Century Aerospace Technology Value Added Reseller
    Satellite imagery can be applied within many industries. Please choose one to learn more.
