Our Remote Sensing Capabilities

Bridging the gap between orbital technology and ground-level history.

Automated Site Discovery

Our models scan thousands of square kilometers of multi-spectral imagery to flag anomalies consistent with archaeological features such as enclosures, mounds, and ancient field systems.

LiDAR Data Processing

We filter digital elevation models (DEMs) derived from LiDAR to remove dense vegetation canopy, revealing subtle topographic features and earthworks invisible to the naked eye.

Change Detection & Monitoring

By comparing historical and recent imagery, our AI automatically flags changes indicating looting pits, urban encroachment, or environmental erosion at protected heritage sites.

Risk Assessment Mapping

We integrate multi-source environmental and human activity data to create predictive risk maps, helping conservationists prioritize intervention for vulnerable cultural heritage.

Case Study

Identifying Ancient Irrigation Systems in Peru

In the arid regions of coastal Peru, pre-Columbian irrigation canals are vital records of ancient engineering, yet they remain largely invisible from ground level due to sediment and vast terrain. By processing 10,000 sq km of high-resolution satellite and SRTM topographical data, Chronos AI identified a sprawling network of 74 km of previously unmapped canals.

  • Detected 74 km of ancient canal infrastructure.
  • Discovered 12 associated small settlement sites through proximity analysis.
