Techniques include low-level air photography, magnetic, thermal, electric, and electromagnetic geophysical prospecting. A mathematical analysis of the phenomena and measurements is given together with the techniques for interpretation of results using computerized image processing. Archaeological prospecting used with image processing has emerged as a universal tool. The aim is to build a visual geographic system available for use by conservationists, historians and scientists alike. The team of authors comprises an archaeologist, two geophysicists and an applied mathematician who have collaborated to produce a book of immense value in this innovative field of study.}, interhash = {987251f2f36aefddb9b6924d7a09f880}, intrahash = {0d12e42535720e30bbff1b96c8644543}, isbn = {0-521-32050-X, 978-0-521-32050-4}, keywords = {archaeology geophysics}, language = {eng}, pages = {XV, 674 S.}, publisher = {Cambridge Univ.
