With the advancement of laser scanning technology, it is possible to acquire Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) point clouds and create Digital Terrain Models (DTMs), which can be analyzed by archaeologists for interesting monuments and structures. However, manually inspecting high volumes of DTM data is a time-consuming task. The goal of this research is to utilize deep learning for automated detection of archaeological monuments and historical man-made terrain structures in DTMs. Southern Lower Saxony, i.e. specifically the Harz mining region, was chosen as the study region because a significant number of monuments can be found here. Due to the limited amounts of annotated data and the large amounts of unlabeled data, the focus is on Self Supervised Learning (SSL). SSL involves two steps: pretext and downstream. In the pretext, a model is trained on unlabeled data to learn intrinsic characteristics and interesting patterns in the input. Downstream is the second step, which involves learning patterns from annotated datasets.In the downstream step, the trained model from the pretext step is either used a fixed feature extractor or directly finetuned for supervised tasks on annotated datasets. In this research, convolutional encoder-decoder networks and Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) are trained on unlabeled DTM data in the SSL pretext. The trained models are then customized for downstream tasks such as classification, instance segmentation, and semantic segmentation. They are then finetuned on small amounts of annotated data for detection of archaeological monuments and man-made terrain structures in the Harz region in Lower Saxony. Experiments are conducted on three different datasets from the Harz region. The first dataset contains areal structures which includes archaeological monuments such as charcoal ki |
