Monument type
Survey of an uncertain circular ditch finding on an aerial image from Bing Maps
Survey data
Area investigated: 30 m x 30 m
Resolutions: 1MP/m2 (a = 0.5m): 900 m2
Array configuration: twin-probe array
Measuring instruments: Lippmann 4point light MC
Imaging software: SURFER (Golden Software)
Survey period: 11. 2013
(With a greater distance to the monitor, the aerial archaeological findings are a little easier to recognize!)
The shape of this circular ditch, which appears somewhat rectangular in the survey image, is due to the low resolution of 1 MP/m2. When the image is interpolated, it becomes clear that it is a circular structure.
In the south-eastern section, the ditch is interrupted in two places. Since there is usually only one access area (earth bridge) to the burial mound, if at all, the ditch area is obviously disturbed. The central burial in the middle of the circle is still clearly visible.
