Modeling Scythian Landscapes - Part 1


This week we were largely in preparation mode as we start into a module on Modeling Scythian Landscapes.  I am excited for this module as I am particularly interested in landscape archaeology and have been looking forward to attempting to model landscape concepts in GIS.  In the map above, we've created a mosaic of ASTER images as the DEM background for our study area.  In the inset is an aerial view of the mounds that has been georectified to the basemap.  This was all a pretty straightforward process, so we should be good to go for Parts 2 and 3.
