Middle American Research Institute Brown Bag Talk Series: “G-LiHT" and Other Lidar Data a Closer Look at Classic Lowland Maya Settlement
Since 2020, the MARI-GISLAB team has been focusing on the so-called G-LiHT lidar dataset, published by NASA in 2013. Despite the caveat that these data had not been collected with archaeological research in mind, some studies based on them provided a picture of the Maya settlement in southern Campeche and Southern Quintana Roo, that was in many ways divergent from what we had projected on the basis of the Peten Pacunam lidar data in 2018. Particularly surprising to us was the lack of dense urban zones and the high frequency of agricultural terraces, according to those studies.
