Cyber Archaeology Lab (University of Southern California)

The Cyber-Archaeology Lab at the University of Southern California specializes in using digital technology to study and preserve archaeological sites and artifacts. It employs tools like 3D scanning, virtual reality, and data analysis to create detailed digital records of cultural heritage. This approach allows researchers to analyze, share, and protect historical information more effectively, especially in cases where physical sites are endangered or inaccessible. By combining archaeology with advanced computer science, the lab advances methods for understanding and conserving the past in innovative ways.
