The Untapped Potential of Low-Cost Photogrammetry in Community-Based Archaeology: A Case Study From Banks Island, Arctic Canada

Abstract: In the last 10 years digital three-dimensional (3D) modelling programs have become inexpensive and user-friendly, affording more opportunities for archaeological research and dissemination. New low-cost programs and web-services utilizing photogrammetry are increasingly being used in archaeological projects, but their potential benefits and challenges have not been fully explored. As a part of our research with the Ikaahuk Archaeology Project we used two inexpensive photogrammetry programs (Agisoft Photoscan a… Show more

“…Photography routines vary based on the subject at hand and the circumstances of the project. On one end of the spectrum, photogrammetric survey can be added as part and parcel of regular field recording (Douglass et al 2015; Haukaas and Hodgetts 2016). Similarly, the technology represents a valuable tool to record sites that are at risk of destruction (Magnani and Schroder 2015) or that have already disappeared (Grün et al 2004).…”

“…In the last few years, photogrammetric software has advanced to such a degree that manual intervention in image alignment is rarely required, and the quality of the resulting datasets and models rivals that of both structured light and laser scanning devices (for example see Barbero-García et al 2018). At the same time, the fact that consumer-grade cameras and cheap (even free) software can produce such impressive results has meant that the technical and financial barriers to use for private individuals and community groups have significantly diminished (Jeffrey et al 2015;Haukaas and Hodgetts 2016).…”

“…Terrestrial photogrammetry, as alluded to above, can be a valuable tool for generating spatial data over the course of excavation and documenting its progress (De Reu et al 2014; Howland et al 2014a; Olson et al 2013; Peng et al 2017). Generating 3D models from images taken from the ground is also likely the most cost-effective method of generating 3D data (Haukaas and Hodgetts 2016). Aerial photogrammetry, though somewhat more expensive as it requires an elevated camera platform, has seen dynamic growth as a tool of archaeological 3D modeling in recent years.…”
