Bruce MacDonaldMcLeester and her team used drone lidar technology, which involves flying a drone low to the ground and using pulses of light to map the topography of an area in great detail. Historically, lidar imaging has used planes, which can’t get as close to the ground and therefore aren’t able to pick up as much detail.“This is some of the earliest data with drone lidar,” McLeester said. “I think with this new technology, we’re going to find more and more of these agricultural sites across North America in unlikely places.” <a href="https://www.wpr.org/news/archaeologists-surprising-discovery-menominee-river" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.wpr.org/news/archaeologists-surprising-discovery-menominee-river</a><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/archaeology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#archaeology</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Wisconsin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Wisconsin</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/lidar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#lidar</a>
