Abstract

In our paper we would like to present a remote sensing perspective on damage assessment of a hill-fort from central Poland, which is a listed site. The lime stone from this hill is known for its quality and has been excavated from at least medieval time. Due to poorly performed walking prospections the extent of the site has been faultily drawn and the whole extent of the site has been detected. Although most of it is being protected by and natural-archaeological reserve, some part are still being quarried. The goal of our study was to assess the damage done to the landscape of the Chełmo Mount. In our research we will investigate two types of data: very high resolution satellite imagery and LiDAR data (and its derivatives). Supervised classification and thematic change detection applied on archival satellite imagery enabled us to evaluate the progression of quarry in time. The DTM derived from LiDAR data, brought us the possibility to mark the potential outline of the site and the area to be protected as well as a 3D insight in to the damage done to the landscape itself.
