Automated Archaeological Feature Detection Using Deep Learning on Optical UAV Imagery - ArchaeoTech 174

There's a lot in this episode and we start with Paul telling us about some of the tech he's taking to Iraq this month. Chris gives a Starlink usability update and talks about his new augmented reality glasses. Finally, we discuss the linked article and using deep learning for automatic feature detection.
