II International Conference Remote Sensing Archaeology "From Space To Place" - Call for Papers

II International Conference Remote Sensing Archaeology "From Space To Place"

Prof. Maurizio Forte (senior scientist of Italian National Research Council), prof. Riccardo Francovich (University of Siena-Medieval Archaeology) and dott. Stefano Campana (University of Siena-Landscape Archaeology) are organizing an important scientific initiative in Italy:

In October 2004, the International Conference on Remote Sensing Archaeology was organized by the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing and hosted by the Joint Laboratory of Remote Sensing Archaeology (JLRSA). In that context an international team of experts was created in order to promote multidisciplinary activities of remote sensing archaeology in the entire world.

We announce hereby that in December 2006, the second conference will be organized in Rome at the National Research Council (main building) with particular attention to the study and the conservation of archaeological and ancient landscapes through integrated technologies and virtual reality
