Integrating remote sensing and photogrammetric approaches to studying a fortified settlement along the Limes Arabicus: Umm ar‐Rasas (Amman, Jordan).

A fortified settlement along the Limes Arabicus, Umm ar-Rasas (Kastrom Mefa'a), reveals significant insights into its architectural and historical significance through advanced remote sensing and photogrammetric techniques. The study highlights the effectiveness of integrating these methods—remote sensing analysis, photogrammetry, and laser scanner surveys—to enhance the understanding and preservation of this UNESCO World Heritage Site. By combining high-resolution data with traditional archaeological approaches, researchers have uncovered detailed spatial patterns and structural details that were previously inaccessible or less visible. This approach not only deepens our knowledge of the settlement's layout but also provides a robust framework for its conservation, ensuring that its heritage value is both studied and safeguarded for future generations.
