The Archeo-Imaging Lab is devoted to the field acquisition and development of methods for state-of-the-art subsurface imaging of archeological sites through the use of near-surface geophysical techniques and other forms of remote sensing. Established in 2000, the mission of the lab is to provide a vehicle for student training and research, and to offer a service to the wider archeological community. Occasional lab projects also contribute to local geological and other studies sponsored by the University of Arkansas.

Geophysical survey methods are revolutionizing the conduct of North American archeology. To find out why:


LAB MISSION
