English Medieval Carpentry & Digital Archaeology

I returned from another geophysics season in Ukraine on the 24th of July. I worked out there with Alex Turner (Soviet Al not the Artic Monkey) doing GPR ( Mala Ground Penetrating Radar) and Magnetometry (Geoscan FM36 Fluxgate Gradiometer). Last year we used a Resistivity machine (Geoscan RM15) and so where able to combine the results of the three methods to create a better picture of the archaeology that remains below the surface at the Akkerman Fortress. Alex and I are still in the process of interpreting the results and building a GIS (ESRI ArcGIS) map that includes all the geophysical survey illustrations / a DGPS (Trimble Differential Global Positioning System) / a Total Station survey and past and present maps. The results of which will be posted on my web site http://www.medievalarchitecture.net/Ukraine.html
