Philip Verhagen is assistant professor at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. He graduated in Physical Geography at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam in 1989, and worked in contract-based archaeology in the Netherlands from 1992-2008 as a specialist in GIS and archaeological computing. During that time, he actively contributed to the development of GIS-based analysis and predictive modelling for archaeological heritage management in the Netherlands. This eventually resulted in the publication of his thesis, completed at Leiden University in 2007. From around 2001, he has also worked on issues concerning the reliability of archaeological survey techniques for detecting archaeological sites, especially core sampling and (more recently) trial trenching. Since 2009, he is back at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam working on predictive modelling, GIS analysis and simulation-based modelling. His project 'Finding the limits of the limes' (http://limeslimits.wordpress.com/) aimed to apply spatial dynamical modelling to reconstruct and understand the development of the cultural landscape in the Dutch part of the Roman frontier zone. From 2011-2016, dr. Verhagen was Publication Officer of CAA. In this capacity, he has been responsible for the publication of the proceedings of the annual international CAA conference, and preparing for the launch of the Journal of Computer Applications in Archaeology.

I am a research fellow at the Landscape Archaeology Research Group, Catalan Institute of Classical Archaeology. My research centres on the development of new multi-source remote sensing procedures, coupled with machine learning and deep learning methods, that can help and eventually improve the detection, identification, mapping and quantification of features of archaeological interest. My broad interests focus on the natural and anthropic relationships that define Cultural Landscapes, including aspects such as long-term ecological footprint, past land use and present-day endangered cultural heritage. I have conducted research and field explorations in a diverse range of archaeological contexts and ecological settings such as South Asia, the Mediterranean region, north-Africa and the Sahara, Central Asia and, more recently, Mongolia. My research combines historical data, multispectral and radar Earth Observation data and geoarchaeological proxies from soil and sediments. I recently completed a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Individual Fellowship (2018-2020) in which I have developed new workflows for the accurate identification of landscapes features of archaeological and paleoenvironmental interest using multi-sensor and multi-petabyte satellite imagery in cloud computing platforms.

I’m an anthropologist and archaeologist interested in mobility, population dynamics, and human adaptations to climate change. I draw on computational techniques in my work, including simulation and spatial analysis, and I am interested in how digital technology is used to learn about and interact with the past.

Joshua is an archaeologist who works on a range of topics including formation, human movement, and settlement pattern, and is based at the University of Auckland (New Zealand). He employs a range of computational methods in his research which mainly focus around 3D technologies and GIS, and is particularly interested in the use of archival data to make new interpretations about the past. His current research is on the middle-Holocene occupation of northeast Africa as part of the RUG Fayum Project; an investigation of early Italic armor as part of the Blood and Money Project; and investigating Maori occupation on Ahuahu Great Mercury Island, among others. Currently he is the Chair of CAA-Australasia.

Laure Nuninger is CNRS researcher in archaeology, she currently works at the UMR 6249 Laboratoire Chrono-Environnement, University of Bourgogne Franche-Comté. Laure does research in Landscape archaeology, settlement pattern, spatial analysis and modeling using GIS and Lidar remote sensing. Current project is "MoveScape" : in this project, we aim to advance the study of movement in past landscapes by integrating two separate lines of research: (i) detection of traces of pathways and (ii) computer-based modelling of movement.

Eleftheria Paliou is Professor in Archaeoinformatics (Computational Archaeology) at the Institute of Archaeology, University of Cologne and Director of the Cologne Digital Archaeology Laboratory (CoDArchLab) since 2016. Her research interests cover a wide range of computer applications in archaeology, especially in the areas of Geographic Information Systems (GIS), 3D modelling and analysis, spatial analysis and statistics, urban computing (spatial networks and spatial interaction modelling) and computer simulation. Her work to date has been more widely concerned with the relationship between spatial and social organization in prehistoric and historic cultures and the ways in which past societies conceptualize and attribute meanings to their environment. Eleftheria was a founding member and Vice Chair of CAA-GR (2012-2018) and has been member of the Scientific Committee of CAA International since 2016.
