Manager:
a. GeoreferenceEITHERahistoricmapORCoronaimageryforyourareaofinterestand digitise any archaeological features you observe, or overlay a shapefile ofknownarchaeologicalsites,asdemonstratedinGISTutorial2.Create an image which shows a distribution of the digitised sites on both thehistoricmap/Coronaimageryandonmodernsatelliteimagerysidebyside.Forexample:
Example:AdistributionofsitesinthehinterlandofAcholla,onCoronaimagery

b. Export a set of data from the EAMENA database. Create a map showing theirdistribution, including elevation and hydrological data, as demonstrated inGISTutorial3:Section1.Forexample:
Example:adistributionofRomansitesinLebanonoverlaidwithelevationandhydrologicaldata
c. Set yourself two questions relating to elevation and/or hydrology from the
exported data and answer them using the simple geospatial analysesdemonstratedinGISTutorial3:Section2.SendashortreportofyourfindingstoyourTrainingManager.
