Artificial Intelligence (AI) is not a recent development. However, with increasing computational capabilities, AI has developed into Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning, technologies particularly good at detecting correlations patterns, categorising, predicting, or extracting information. Within archaeology, can process big data accumulated over decades of research deposited in archives. By combining these offers new insights exciting opportunities to create knowledge from archaeological archives for contemporary future research. the ethical implications human costs are yet fully understood. Therefore, we question whether archaeology blessing curse.

The utilization of remote sensing technologies for archaeology was motivated by their ability to map large areas within a short time at reasonable cost. With recent advances in platform and technologies, uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAV) equipped with imaging Light Detection Ranging (LiDAR) systems have emerged as promising tool due low cost, ease deployment/operation, provide high-resolution geospatial data. In some cases, archaeological sites might be covered vegetation, which makes the identification below-canopy structures quite challenging. LiDAR energy travel through gaps vegetation allows derivation returns from hidden below canopy. This study deals development deployment UAV system assisted an integrated Global Navigation Satellite System/Inertial System (GNSS/INS) mapping Dana Island, Turkey. Data processing strategies are also introduced detection visualization underground structures.
