We propose a new GIS-based procedure to retrieve archaeological elements using satellite remote sensing.

Abstract

We propose a new GIS-based procedure to retrieve archaeological elements using satellite remote sensing. The processing of multispectral satellite images consists in a preprocessing phase using the pansharpening technique to improve the spatial quality and in the exploitation of linear equations of the initial spectral bands with the aim of generating accurate and precise raster data that can be used as input for an object classification. The proposed methodology has been tested in an archaeological area located on the north-west flank of Etna volcano (Sicily, Italy).
