Capturing and quantifying the world in three dimensions (x, y, z) using light detection and
ranging (lidar) technology drives fundamental advances in the Earth and Ecological …

Archaeologists have traditionally thought that the development of Maya civilization was
gradual, assuming that small villages began to emerge during the Middle Preclassic period …

The use of topographic airborne LiDAR data has become an essential part of archaeological
prospection, and the need for an archaeology-specific data processing workflow is well …

In this paper we present a description of a new multispectral airborne map** light
detection and ranging (lidar) along with performance results obtained from two years of data …

In spite of increasing point density and accuracy, airborne lidar point clouds often exhibit
point density variations. Some of these density variations indicate issues with point clouds …

City plans symbolizing cosmologies have long been recognized as a defining element of
Mesoamerican civilizations. The origins of formal spatial configurations are thus the key to …

Airborne LiDAR is a widely accepted tool for archaeological prospection. Over the last
