AMBITIONS AND REALITIES Remote Sensing for Archaeology, Research  and Conservation The main - but not exclusive - theme of this conference will be exploration of objectives and challenges in the effective use of remote sensing techniques in archaeological and landscape studies, not only for research but also for the promotion of conservation and public understanding.

How can our various techniques be deployed in combination with one another, and with what practical outcomes? How can we build bridges across regional or national divides? 

What can we learn from combining or comparing our techniques? How can we make our results useful to those involved in practical conservation and future planning? How do our national or regional realities assist or impede the use of remote sensing techniques in research, conservation and the promotion of public understanding?

Suggestions, with a maximum 150-word summary of the intended content, are invited on any of the following themes, or on other considerations relating to ambitions and realities in the fields of remote sensing for archaeology and landscape studies. 

• Ambitions and impediments: national and regional realities across Europe. 
• Sharing understanding and experience: creating conditions for international or interdisciplinary exchange and cooperation.
• Modelling the past for the future: accessibility of lidar and similar data for uses in research and conservation.
• Remote sensing applications in responding to infrastructure and development projects.
• "Crossover studies": learning from comparisons and combinations of remote sensing (and other) techniques.
• Exploration + interpretation = understanding??? But whose understanding? And of what relevance to conservation and public appreciation?
