Detection of Archaeological Sites Using Remote Sensing in The Cilicia Pedias

“…Remote sensing is playing an increasingly important role in the detection and documentation of ancient sites (Corrie, 2011). It is known that the archaeological remains, especially ceramic, stone and adobe materials, which have less permeability than their surroundings and retain heat, give a different reflection value than the soil reflection (Lillesand & Kiefer, 2000;Etaya et al, 2000). These different heat properties can be used as a valuable tool for detecting ancient sites.…”

“…In particular, remote sensing for archaeology has been widely applied for discovery [1][2][3] and monitoring [4,5] in the Middle East [6] and in Egypt for many application domains, including discovery and documentation [7], and, more recently, conservation and monitoring purposes [8][9][10][11][12].…”
