Forested areas are always a challenge for geophysical surveys, in this case the terrain had to be specially prepared in order to allow measurements

Location of surveys imposed on ALS/LiDAR derived composite model

Magnetic gradiometry data shows clusters of kilns as high amplitude anomaly zones (blue with red colours)

Soil surface magnetic susceptibility survey confirms extremely high readings in the same areas with magnetic gradiometry anomalies

In 2015 we participated in a Ministry of Culture and National Heritage project led by prof. Szymon Orzechowski that included field-walking, geophysics, ALS data processing and creating a GIS database for the Mt. Wykus Iron Age production site.
