Abstract

An approach is proposed for the integrated processing of the data of multispectral aerial photography and a geophysical survey; this approach is based on the consistent application of the principal component analysis and the fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm. Its use provides the identification of thick humus layer areas, clarification of the boundaries of a thick occupation layer, as well as the localization of sites presumably containing buried archaeological objects. This approach was successfully applied in identifying an occupation layer and modeling its boundaries in the test area of the archaeological site – Kushmanskoye fortified settlement Uchkakar (Udmurt Republic, Yarsky district).
