Remote monitoring iS nowadays is a field of increased use due to technological advances that offer to the direction of remote and non-invasive collection of data; thus this field is highlighted by new research directions  for archaeology and cultural heritage studies and practices AS WELL.
The session invites papers towards the above principles some of the major aims of which are described as follows:
 -Smart sensors and advanced laboratory systems for environmental data collection (air pollutants, solar variation, temperature real-time monitoring etc.).
-Studies using Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs): Use of UAVs for recording and remote sensing, case studies from the archaeology and tourism.
-Monitoring cultural heritage from space: issues and new research directions of earth observation using satellite remote sensing for monitoring and mapping cultural heritage from space.
The session will welcome contributions THAT should preferably refer to the demonstration of the results of recently completed projects or provide new data from technical advances that are in progress.
