Since 1970’s archaeologist have been aware of the fact that aerial images of IR wavelengths can be very much useful for surveying various sites that are covered by soil or vegetation. Though, in earlier days there was no economic tool which can help them in capturing images of the site but with the use of Drones in Archaeology, an archaeologist has gained a useful method to continue with their study of various hidden archaeological sites.
With the advancement in technology, aerial mapping drones have been used in a wider range by the archeologist. This is because drones are cost effective, fast and accurate in terms of other employed methods for aerial mapping, videography or photography. Drones are useful in carrying thermal imaging cameras which can easily detect the archaeological features of the site that are buried under. Archeologists are employing drones for other purposes as well. They are mounting IR sensors, magnetometers, and GPS devices to assist with their work.
In any case, if you also want to take advantage of the various applications of drones then you can contact Falcon Eye Drones. We have the highly advanced drones that are capable of taking varying shots from different angles. Our drones capture high-definition and high-resolution images and videos of sites in a short duration of time.
