The research programme of the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute of Archaeological Prospection and Virtual Archaeology is divided into three interdisciplinary and interacting programme lines, namely into

Archaeological Remote Sensing,
Archaeological Geophysical Prospection and
Archaeological Interpretation, Spatial Analysis & Virtual Archaeology.

These three programme lines comprise technologically and methodologically defined research areas which offer numerous possibilities for close interaction and collaboration in terms of improved, integrative data processing, visualization, analysis and integrated interpretation possibilities. The research fields presented by these PLs are highly relevant for all spatial aspects of landscape archaeology and mutual benefits can be seen in the use of high-resolution terrain models obtained by remote sensing with airborne laser scanners, integration of large scale, high-resolution geophysical prospecting, improved VR data processing, visualization and analysis, and a complete interpretation in the framework of a dynamic ArchaeoGIS for the further development of non-destructive archaeology.
