03First: the digital tools of the active explorer and field research
The modern explorer no longer relies on paper maps and a traditional compass only; he carries an integrated technology kit that raises the accuracy and the speed of field work.
GPS: locates archaeological and environmental sites and traces exploration routes with great precision, and records the coordinates for later mapping.
Geographic information systems (GIS) and digital maps: store the collected locations as layers, so terrain, findings and routes can be analysed together.
Field sensors and mobile applications: measure temperature, humidity and altitude, and log observations instantly in a shared database instead of a paper notebook.
Drones fitted with high-resolution cameras and thermal sensors: photograph rough terrain such as mountains, forests and desert valleys and run a complete aerial topographic survey that saves time and effort and keeps the team out of danger.
