ABSTRACT Big data have arrived in archaeology, in the form of both large-scale datasets themselves and in the analytics and approaches of data science. Aerial data collected from satellite-, airborne- and UAV-mounted sensors have been particularly transformational, allowing us to capture more sites and features, over larger areas, at greater resolution, and in formerly inaccessible landscapes. However, these new means of collecting, processing, and visualizing datasets also present fresh challenges for archaeologists. What kinds of questions are these methods suited to answer, and where do they fall short? How do they articulate with the work of collecting smaller scale and lower resolution data? How are our relationships with “local” communities impacted by working at the scales of entire provinces, nation-states, and continents? This themed issue seeks to foster a conversation about how the unprecedented expansion of archaeological site detection, the globalization of archaeological data structures and databases, and the use of high-resolution aerial datasets are changing both the way archaeologists envision the past and the way we work in the present. In our introduction to the issue, presented here, we outline a series of conceptual and ethical issues posed by big data approaches in archaeology and provide an overview of how the nine essays that comprise this volume each address them.

大考古学:视野与盲点

摘要大数据已经以大规模数据集本身以及数据科学的分析和方法的形式进入了考古领域。从安装在卫星,机载和无人机上的传感器收集的空中数据尤其具有变革性,使我们能够以更大的分辨率,更大的分辨率和以前无法进入的地形捕获更多的站点和特征。但是,这些新的收集,处理和可视化数据集的方法也给考古学家提出了新的挑战。这些方法适合回答哪些类型的问题?在收集较小规模和较低分辨率的数据时,它们如何表达?在整个省,民族国家,地方和地方的工作规模对我们与“本地”社区的关系有何影响,和大洲?这个主题问题旨在就考古现场检测的空前扩展,考古数据结构和数据库的全球化以及高分辨率航空数据集的使用如何改变考古学家对过去的设想以及我们的工作方式进行对话。在现在。在此处介绍的问题简介中,我们概述了考古学中大数据方法带来的一系列概念和伦理问题,并概述了构成本卷的九篇论文如何解决这些问题。高分辨率航空数据集的使用正在改变考古学家对过去的设想以及我们目前的工作方式。在本文介绍的问题中,我们概述了考古学中大数据方法带来的一系列概念和伦理问题,并概述了构成本卷的九篇论文如何解决这些问题。高分辨率航空数据集的使用正在改变考古学家对过去的设想以及我们目前的工作方式。在此处介绍的问题简介中,我们概述了考古学中大数据方法带来的一系列概念和伦理问题,并概述了构成本卷的九篇论文如何解决这些问题。
