“…The results obtained can be added to the documentary evidence normally used in this type of study. The second key point is public (non-academic) involvement in HGIS (Lafreniere et al 2019), allowing the transfer of knowledge from society to science through citizen participation in data collection tasks (Southall and Lafreniere 2019). Although volunteered geographic information has not yet been fully integrated in HGIS, perhaps because it is a relatively recent phenomenon (Budhathoki et al 2008;Panek and Netek 2019), the broad public, and not only researchers, are becoming increasingly interested in spatio-temporal analyses (Andrienko et al 2010).…”

The use of geographic information science in historical landscape studies at the theoreticalmethodological level constitutes a clear scientific gap that needs to be filled. This work explores this field, considering important issues in relation to spatio-temporal analyses and integration, as well as the sources and the main techniques which can be used. A brief description and explanation is provided of photointerpretation, vector, raster and remote sensing techniques as useful tools for spatial analysis in historical landscape studies. Finally, an overview of the field is given through several examples of case studies and theoretical-methodological publications, providing in this way a brief state-of-the-art.
