Gobbo, Diego Del Cogliano, Daniel Pinto, Leandro 2018-10-01 The aim of this article is to assess the potential that LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) has for the study of archaeological sites. In doing so, we present our recent research on the site of El Shincal de Quimivil and watershed of the Zapata mountain range, Department of Belén, Province of Catamarca. This is the first research that employs this technology at an archaeological site in the Argentine Republic. LIDAR technology is based on the emission and registration of reflected laser light which thereby allows the identification of different levels of data that the beam finds across its path. This property makes it possible to detect a priori constructions hidden by layers of vegetation. The use of this methodology in different parts of the world has led to the discovery of previously hidden structures and archaeological sites in recent years. The results of our study revealed the presence of new, previously unregistered, archaeological structures at the site, and the generation of a high-resolution Digital Terrain Model (DTM). El objetivo de este artículo es presentar las potencialidades que posee el uso de la tecnología LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) para el estudio de sitios arqueológicos. Para ello daremos a conocer los recientes trabajos realizados en El Shincal de Quimivil e interfluvio de la sierra de Zapata, departamento de Belén, provincia de Catamarca. Se trata de los primeros trabajos con esta tecnología implementados en un sitio arqueológico de la República Argentina. La tecnología LIDAR se basa en la emisión y registro de luz láser reflejada que permite la identificación de distintos niveles de información que el haz encuentra en su camino. Esta propiedad hace posible detectar construcciones a priori ocultas por la capa vegetal. La aplicación de esta metodología en diferentes lugares del mundo ha significado el descubrimiento de estructuras y sitios arqueológicos en los últimos años. Los resultados de este estudio determinaron la presencia de nuevas estructuras arqueológicas no reconocidas hasta el momento y la generación de un Modelo Digital de Terreno (MDT) con una alta resolución espacial. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/5386 10.34096/arqueologia.t24.n3.5386 spa Instituto de Arqueología, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/5386/4882 Arqueología; Vol. 24 No. 3 (2018): September-December; 165-184 Arqueología; Vol. 24 Núm. 3 (2018): septiembre-diciembre; 165-184 1853-8126 0327-5159 LIDAR 3D Digital Terrain Model Archaeology El Shincal de Quimivil Northwest Argentina LIDAR 3D Modelo Digital de Terreno Arqueología El Shincal de Quimivil Noroeste argentino Application of LIDAR technology at El Shincal de Quimivil, Londres, Catamarca Aplicación de tecnología LIDAR en El Shincal de Quimivil, Londres, Catamarca info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=arqueo&d=5386_oai
