A little bit of history…
• Fortification appears on the first Mercy maps (1723-1725) and then on all military maps by the end of the First World War.
• The first excavations were carried out in 1939 by archaeologist Marius Moga.
• March 2013 – first LiDAR flight

Methods for archaeological investigation
Local Relief Model
LRM is one of the most useful and efficient way to visualize elevation data stored in raster as digital elevation model
The basic idea behind the method
is „filtering out” terrain surface leaving just archaeological features and their relative elevation above or below the terrain.
A GIS model

1. Filtering Applying the first low pass filter „smoothing 5x5” twice for DTM
Applying the second one with a 15 m kernel size

2. Local Relief Model
Methods for archaeological investigation
Calculating the difference between the original raster and the resulting one in the previous step to generate initial LRM and applying an appropriate color scheme.

• Extracting contour lines • Selecting the zero contours • Converting these contours into points • Extracting the elevation values
3. A “clean” digital terrain model
Methods for archaeological investigation
• Interpolating the elevation values

5. Raster binarization
Methods for archaeological investigation
• Raster binarization by applying the „percentage threshold" method
• Select the cells with value 1 • Convert them in polygons • Manual editing of them in order to keep
only the polygons of interest.

Conclusions
• The benefits of using LiDAR technology in archaeological investigations by generating DTM, DSM and LRM and analyzing the results.
• The main advantage of this technique is the full automation process: run a GIS model
