Learning outcomes
|
The aim of this course is to provide an introduction to the application of geodesy in archaeology (e.g. ground-plan and cross-section documentation of constructions, taking altitude, planimetry spotting, standard and emergency ways of surveying, word description of terrain situations, work with a map, photo-documentation of terrain situations, etc.). It will also provide information about the "Harris" method. In the scope of the course, the basics of terrain theory are introduced.
Students will understand how to apply geodesy in archaeology (e. g. in ground-plan and cross-section documentation of constructions, taking altitude, planimetry spotting etc.) They will learn rules for verbal description of terrain situations, work with a map, and the terrain theory.
