Challenge Description |
||||||||
What is not possible / not adequately addressed at present? |
||||||||
Macroscale cultural archeological remnants need to be understood for social and cultural risk management and mitigation (e.g. tumuli in Algeria). |
||||||||
What effect does this challenge have on operations? |
||||||||
Important to ensure that operations manage environmental and social risks. The social license to operate requires no damage to culturally-sensitive areas. |
||||||||
Thematic information requirements: |
Ortho base images Terrain information Topographic information |
|||||||
What do you currently do to address this challenge? How is this challenge conventionally addressed? |
||||||||
Consultation or prior determined areas. |
||||||||
What kind of solutions do you envisage could address this challenge? |
||||||||
Mapping of certain cultural features or sites using satellite images. |
||||||||
What is your view on the capability of technology to meet this need? Are you currently using EO tech? If not, why not? |
||||||||
Many features are small, partially or fully buried, or only found through interviews with local populations. Potential further use of EO in archaeology; for example to detect soil compaction from previous settlements, or indirect assessment of potential f |
