Identify the Archaeological Research of Thatta District Through Geo-Spatial Technologies: A Case Study of Makli Graveyard and Banbhore Fort

Archaeological research on the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Makli Graveyard and Banbhore Fort in Thatta, Sindh Province, reveals significant insights into the region's historical civilization through advanced geospatial technologies. The study, utilizing Landsat-8 satellite imagery and Digital Elevation Models (DEM), demonstrates how these sites have thrived despite geographical vulnerabilities, such as proximity to rivers and environmental threats. Banbhore Fort stands out as Sindh’s most important port, showcasing resilience and historical significance. The research highlights the effectiveness of remote sensing in classifying land cover patterns and artifacts, providing a comprehensive spatial and temporal analysis of the region's archaeological landscape.
