在考古学中，低空摄影现在是发掘规模的普遍做法；然而，景观规模的应用是一个相对较新的尝试，具有良好的分析潜力。从2014年到2016年，一架装有摄像头的无人机（UAV）被用来记录作为东部？考古调查(E？伊拉克库尔德斯坦杜胡克省西部的考古勘测项目。E ?AS团队用无人机记录了70多个考古遗址，从单相文物分散到站立建筑的考古遗迹，到覆盖超过30公顷的遗址。本文给出了该调查的代表性示例，以概述项目工作流程和主要输出数据层，包括数字正形图和数字高程模型。然后根据现有的卫星数据评估结果的质量和效用。然后考虑分析和解释的方法，以演示在景观考古学中的应用。
Low-altitude photography in archaeology is now common practice at the scale of excavations; however, landscape-scale applications are a relatively new endeavor with promising analytical potential. From 2014-2016, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with a mounted camera was used to document sites recorded as part of the Eastern ?abur Archaeological Survey (E?AS), an archaeological reconnaissance project in western Dohuk Province, Iraqi Kurdistan. The E?AS team documented over 70 archaeological sites with the UAV, from single-phase artifact scatters, to archaeological remains with standing architecture, to tells that cover more than 30 hectares. Representative examples from this survey are presented here to outline the project workflow and primary output data layers, including digital orthomosaics and digital elevation models. The quality and utility of results are then assessed in relationship to available satellite-based data. Methods for analysis and interpretation are then considered to demonstrate applications in landscape archaeology.[GRAPHICS].
