Organizers

University of Siena
University of Siena - Laboratory of Landscape Archaeology & Remote Sensing (LAP&T; www.lapetlab.it and http://archeologia.medievale.it)
The Laboratory has special experience and skill in archaeological mapping projects and is to consider among the most sophisticated in Europe. The LAP&T is keen to promote the combined use of new and established methods of survey, each supporting the others in the exploration and interpretation of carefully chosen heritage landscapes. From year 1999 the LAP&T promoted and managed, in partnership with prestigious national and international research centres (Italian National Research Council, English Heritage, Aerial Archaeology Research Group, International Society for Archaeological Prospection, University of Cambridge, University of Durham, University of Vienna, etc.) numerous schools and workshops: XI ISSA on Remote Sensing in Archaeology (1999), Aerial Archaeology Research School (2001), international workshop on Aerial archaeology and new technologies for the study of archaeological landscapes (2001), the first workshop AL&DT on Laserscanner and GPS (2005), the XIV ISSA on Aerial Archaeology, Oblique digital photography and GIS-based interpretation (2005) and the XV ISSA Geophysics for Landscape Archaeology.
National Research Council
Institute of Technology Applied to Cultural Heritage, Virtual Heritage LAB (www.cnr.itabc.it).
The Laboratory, directed by Maurizio Forte, has for more than ten years been playing a leading role at national and international level in the development and application of integrated remote sensing methods for archaeology and particularly in teaching advanced students in archaeology. Among its many initiatives the Laboratory can point particularly to the organization of the Italy-USA workshops held at Boston, Rome and Berkeley (2001,2003,2004) and more recently the world-wide event 'Building Virtual Rome', the first exhibition dedicated to offering the general public, academic institutions, and professional bodies a global view on developments in three-dimensional stereoscopic representation of the past, based on the Roman Empire and the ancient city of Rome.
