Benefits for Archaeologists
• Identify sites that are located in remote areas that cannot be seen from the ground
• Non-invasive• Collect video, photography and 3-D
reconstructions of surrounding landscape• Crop, frost and soil marks can best be seen
from an aerial viewpoint

Drones and Archaeology in Peru
• Used to map, monitor and safeguard Peru’s ancient treasures
• Protect archaeological heritage from squatters, builders, miners and land traffickers
• Provide birds eye view of ruins that can be converted into 3D images and highly detailed maps.
• Mapping would take months and thousands of dollars to complete but now the same area can be done in 10 minutes
