The landscape mapping represents a traditional activity of Czech geographers for more than a century. Czech landscape research and mapping experience supported by remotely sensed data and GIS technique was used in the Al-Baharíya oasis (Egypt, Western Desert) to construct both the map of present landscape with natural and human-made objects, and the reconstruction natural landscape map showing the study area at the approximate time of early settlement. Such products present selected sites, today mostly covered with sandy dunes, where the possibility to find ancient dwelling sites is higher in analogy with sites of present archaeological excavation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
